Coloured bath resurfacing near Appleton Wiske

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Appleton Wiske

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Appleton Wiske

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Appleton Wiske questions

Do you work in Appleton Wiske?

We do. We send a technician to Appleton Wiske for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Appleton Wiske?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
