How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Coloured bath resurfacing in Heworth, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When a repair isn’t the answer
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)

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Heworth
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
For a price in Heworth, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Heworth
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
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.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
