Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Hackenthorpe

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hackenthorpe

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Hackenthorpe questions

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do you work in Hackenthorpe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hackenthorpe. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Are there extra charges for Hackenthorpe?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Sheffield. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Hackenthorpe, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we’re called out for in Hackenthorpe

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your S12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
