About our coloured bath resurfacing in Mill Bank
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. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Mill Bank questions
Do you cover the entire of Calderdale?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Mill Bank?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
