Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Mid Yell
Our repair technicians come to Mid Yell for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Mid Yell
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Mid Yell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Mid Yell get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Mid Yell
Is my repair covered?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Mid Yell?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

When to call us in Mid Yell
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
