Coloured bath resurfacing in Acaster Malbis without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Acaster Malbis
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Acaster Malbis?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Acaster Malbis and the rest of York. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One price list for the entire UK
- Everything repaired in place

- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For anyone letting property in or around Acaster Malbis, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
