Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Broughton Beck

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broughton Beck as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Broughton Beck clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place

Broughton Beck questions

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Broughton Beck?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)

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