Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Minskip
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Minskip: your questions answered
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- 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.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Minskip?
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.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
