The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Nunthorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TS7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What we are called out for in Nunthorpe
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Common reasons people in Nunthorpe contact us include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Comparing quotes
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
