Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. 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 booking.
Why book with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Work done at your home or business

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in East Barnby
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in East Barnby
Is my repair covered?

Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.

What affects the price in East Barnby
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for East Barnby. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around East Barnby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
