Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Oughtershaw
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
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.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Oughtershaw, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Oughtershaw. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Oughtershaw: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Oughtershaw?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BD23 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
