Coloured bath resurfacing in Yanwath without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Yanwath
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around Yanwath, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What a repair can’t fix
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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Yanwath: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Yanwath?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Yanwath?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
