Coloured bath resurfacing near Threshfield

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Threshfield without replacing anything

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Threshfield

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for these signs:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Questions from Threshfield

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Threshfield and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Threshfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Threshfield clients choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
