Questions from Thongsbridge
Do you come to Thongsbridge?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Thongsbridge from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you cover the entire of Kirklees?
We work UK-wide, so Thongsbridge is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Thongsbridge without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

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 get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Thongsbridge, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we are called out for in Thongsbridge
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Thongsbridge. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
For a price in Thongsbridge, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Thongsbridge
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
