Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Nether Poppleton
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
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: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nether Poppleton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Nether Poppleton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
FAQs for Nether Poppleton
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are there extra charges for Nether Poppleton?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
