When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

FAQs for York
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in York.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Landlord and trade work in York
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in York
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for York. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before booking
- One visit for most repairs
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
