How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Treskerby
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
If you’re in Treskerby and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Treskerby
For anyone letting property in or around Treskerby, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Treskerby
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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’ll tell you honestly.
