- Resurfacing from £350

Coloured bath resurfacing in Moortown without replacing anything
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Moortown
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PO30 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Moortown
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in Moortown

- Faded or patchy colour
- 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
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- Aftercare advice
