Coloured suite to white in West Bradford, Lancashire
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white for householders, landlords and businesses in West Bradford. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in West Bradford
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. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in West Bradford and across Lancashire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we are called out for in West Bradford
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in West Bradford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in West Bradford
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work in West Bradford?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to West Bradford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West Bradford
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Bradford as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
