Coloured bath resurfacing for Normanby-by-Spital homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Normanby-by-Spital

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

Older homes around Normanby-by-Spital may have baths that have been in place for decades. A sound older bath is well worth repairing without disturbing the rest of the room.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Normanby-by-Spital

For anyone letting property in or around Normanby-by-Spital, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Normanby-by-Spital?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • 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
  • Faded or patchy colour

In the older streets of Normanby-by-Spital, around landmarks like St Peter's Church, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. In an older home in a village like Normanby-by-Spital, replacing a suite can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Normanby-by-Spital clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our Full price list Or Resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it. In a village or hamlet like Normanby-by-Spital, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
