Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Clifton without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rotherham. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Clifton. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire suite
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
