Coloured suite to white in Wark, Northumberland
Local coloured bath resurfacing for Wark: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Wark without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, 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.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

About Wark
Wark is about 22 miles west of Morpeth, in Northumberland. Book a date that suits you, and we’ll give you an arrival time in advance, so there’s no waiting around. Wark is one of 189 towns and villages in Northumberland we cover. You can also see our page for Newcastle upon Tyne, about 24 miles away.
Our visits in NE48 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. That includes homes on Main Street, St Michael's Mount and Church Lane and the roads around them. If you’re just outside Wark, we cover Simonburn (2 miles south), Bellingham (4 miles north), Barrasford (4 miles south-east), Humshaugh (5 miles south-east) and Chollerford (5 miles south-east). We also work in nearby towns such as Hexham (9 miles south-east), Haltwhistle (13 miles south-west), Corbridge (11 miles south-east) and Haydon Bridge (8 miles south).
Local landmarks in Wark
We visit homes around Grey Bull Inn, Wark Church of England First School and Church of St Michael, among other places. Nearby you will also find Birtley Castle (1.2 miles east). For a walk, there is Halleypike Lough.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NE48 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
