Questions from Birstwith
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?
All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you cover Birstwith?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Birstwith and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HG3 postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Birstwith
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we’re called out for in Birstwith
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
What a repair can’t fix
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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Birstwith
- Whole bathroom suites

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

For anyone letting property in or around Birstwith, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Birstwith as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: 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 you are under no obligation.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
