Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Skelmanthorpe homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Skelmanthorpe, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Coloured bath resurfacing in Skelmanthorpe without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Skelmanthorpe as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Skelmanthorpe
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around Skelmanthorpe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Is there a call-out fee?

What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
