Coloured suite to white in Wigshaw, Warrington

- Faded or patchy colour
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Wigshaw, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Wigshaw
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- The material
- How much damage there is
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 price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
