Coloured bath resurfacing in Roundhay without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Roundhay

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

Look out for any of the following:

  • 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
  • Faded or patchy colour

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Most customers in Roundhay get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
