What we’re called out for in Newsholme

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Our hiring checklist

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Newsholme

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Riding of Yorkshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Newsholme

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Landlord and trade work in Newsholme

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Newsholme

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Newsholme clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Newsholme

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
