How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Swinnow
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Swinnow
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What we are called out for in Swinnow
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.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What affects the price in Swinnow
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole suite
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LS13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
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.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Swinnow
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you cover Swinnow?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Swinnow. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Leeds?
Across the UK, so Swinnow is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
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.
