Coloured bath resurfacing for Foxholes homes

Foxholes: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of East Riding of Yorkshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Foxholes included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your YO25 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Foxholes, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common problems we fix in Foxholes

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Foxholes, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
