Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Gildersome
We travel to Gildersome for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.

- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Gildersome
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Gildersome
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gildersome. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leeds and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
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. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
You do not 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
