Barnby questions
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Barnby without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Barnby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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)

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnby
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
If you manage property in Barnby, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Barnby?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Repairing versus replacing in Barnby

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
