Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Scropton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Scropton

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before booking
- One price list for the whole UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Common questions in Scropton
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What affects the price in Scropton
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Scropton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common problems we fix in Scropton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
