How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Thornholme
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Thornholme
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Thornholme: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
