How to compare quotes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Doncaster

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Doncaster

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Doncaster use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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.

What we work on

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Repairing versus replacing in Doncaster

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Doncaster: your questions answered

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Doncaster, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Doncaster get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
