Need coloured bath resurfacing in Laverton?

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything

Coloured bath resurfacing in Laverton, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Laverton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Laverton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Laverton

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Laverton

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
