About our coloured bath resurfacing in White Lackington
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in White Lackington as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in White Lackington
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Questions from White Lackington
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you come to White Lackington?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to White Lackington. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in White Lackington
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in White Lackington get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
