Coloured bath resurfacing for Scrooby homes

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Scrooby

A full suite is usually done in one to 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 faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Scrooby clients choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before booking

Common questions in Scrooby

Are there extra charges for Scrooby?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Scrooby?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Scrooby

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • 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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
