Coloured bath resurfacing near Hutton Buscel

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hutton Buscel, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hutton Buscel and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When to call us in Hutton Buscel

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • 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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
