About our coloured bath resurfacing in Gargrave
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landmarks near Gargrave
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Masons Arms and Church of St Andrew. There’s a railway station in Gargrave itself: Gargrave station. Well-known places in the area include Raikeswood Hospital (3.6 miles south-east) and Skipton Castle (3.9 miles east). For a walk, there is Sharp Haw.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Gargrave?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Landlord and trade work in Gargrave
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gargrave as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Gargrave: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Generally one visit, start to finish
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gargrave. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Gargrave, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
