Coloured bath resurfacing for Pickhill homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pickhill

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Pickhill

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Pickhill?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Pickhill and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Pickhill

  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Landlord and trade work in Pickhill

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Pickhill

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
