Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Appleton Roebuck
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in York and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.

Appleton Roebuck: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Appleton Roebuck and the rest of York. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Appleton Roebuck?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Appleton Roebuck and the rest of York. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
