Coloured bath resurfacing in Hew Green

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hew Green, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Hew Green

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover Hew Green?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hew Green and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Yorkshire.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Hew Green

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price
