Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Harrowby

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Harrowby

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Harrowby. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NG31 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
