Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Sproxton

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Sproxton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Sproxton: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you come to Sproxton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Sproxton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What we’re called out for in Sproxton

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Sproxton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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