Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Bugthorpe

- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bugthorpe, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bugthorpe
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bugthorpe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire suite
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Bugthorpe

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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, typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
