Coloured bath resurfacing in Hargrave, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hargrave
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hargrave as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.
- 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, generally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Hargrave

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
