Coloured bath resurfacing in Upperby, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upperby
For anyone letting property in or around Upperby, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upperby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
What affects the price in Upperby
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Upperby. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price

Repair or replace in Upperby?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
