What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Old Malton

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Old Malton

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Old Malton?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO17 postcode.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you come to Old Malton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Old Malton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Old Malton?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Malton

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Old Malton?

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

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Old Malton. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Old Malton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
