When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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’ll say what we think.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Little Ouseburn
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in York. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Ouseburn
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common questions in Little Ouseburn
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Little Ouseburn?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Little Ouseburn. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO26 postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
