Coloured suite to white in Overton, York
Coloured bath resurfacing across Overton and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Coloured bath resurfacing in Overton, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Overton and across York. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Overton
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Overton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Overton: your questions answered
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
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 changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Overton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
