- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Derrythorpe, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Derrythorpe, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Derrythorpe
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
