Coloured bath resurfacing in Hunmanby, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hunmanby
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Repairing versus replacing in Hunmanby
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Hunmanby
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are there extra charges for Hunmanby?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
