Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Wolsingham
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. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Wolsingham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Wolsingham questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you work in Wolsingham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Wolsingham and the rest of County Durham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
