Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Widdrington
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Widdrington
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
