Coloured bath resurfacing in Warthill without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Warthill and across York. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Warthill

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Common reasons people in Warthill contact us are:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Common questions in Warthill

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover the entire of York?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Warthill

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Warthill, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Warthill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
