About our coloured bath resurfacing in Townfield
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, 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.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When to call us in Townfield
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

- How the colour is matched
- How to care for the finish
- What preparation is included
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in County Durham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Townfield
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Townfield. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
