What we do, step by step

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Walbottle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
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. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Questions from Walbottle
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Walbottle?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walbottle use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
