We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Howdendyke?

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

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Howdendyke

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace in Howdendyke?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Howdendyke. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not 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 pictures.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Howdendyke

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Are there extra charges for Howdendyke?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Which areas do you work in?

All of East Riding of Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
