How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Scarcroft get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repairing versus replacing in Scarcroft
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Scarcroft?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Scarcroft questions
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What areas do you cover?
All of Leeds, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
