About our coloured bath resurfacing in Skirethorns
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Skirethorns
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Skirethorns and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Skirethorns, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Skirethorns. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
