Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Carthorpe
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Rural addresses like Carthorpe just need a little planning. Tell us about narrow lanes, long drives or parking, and we will take care of the rest.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair

Questions from Carthorpe
My house in Carthorpe is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Generally, yes. Older coloured suites are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us pictures and we will tell you what’s possible.
Do you cover villages like Carthorpe?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Carthorpe?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Carthorpe included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When to call us in Carthorpe
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of St Lambert, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up. In a village or hamlet like Carthorpe, access can be the only tricky part. Once we are there, the coloured bath resurfacing works exactly as anywhere else.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. In an older home in a village like Carthorpe, replacing a suite can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before you book
