Coloured bath resurfacing in Wall End

How it works

From the moment we arrive, 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, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Most customers in Wall End get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Wall End, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Wall End?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Wall End

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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
