- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Thrimby
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Thrimby
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Thrimby. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Thrimby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
