Spray Granite Basics
Spray granite is a stone-effect coating that we spray over the kitchen worktops, splashbacks, bathroom walls and bath panels you already have in Wyke, finished with a clear topcoat that is water-resistant for normal kitchen and bathroom use: most jobs take one day plus 24 hours to cure, the price is a fixed quote after a free survey, and the coating carries a 5-year written guarantee.
Around Wyke centre, semi-detached houses are the largest group of homes at 49.3%, so the kitchen worktop and the family bathroom are the most likely starting points, and the free survey is where we check each surface and show you samples.

Surfaces We Spray
The coating bonds to most solid, rigid surfaces once they are cleaned, keyed and repaired, including laminate, tiles, MDF, chipboard, concrete and plaster, but not flexible surfaces or chipboard swollen by water unless it is repaired first, as our main spray granite page explains; cabinet doors are a separate job, covered by our kitchen respraying service in Wyke.
- Kitchen worktops, upstands and breakfast bars
- Splashbacks, tiled or laminate
- Bathroom walls, vanity tops and rigid bath panels
- Utility room worktops
- Fireplace surrounds and furniture tops
About 690 of the 5,010 properties here were built between 1919 and 1939, and in homes of that age the kitchen and bathroom have usually been refitted, so we check how the current tiles and worktops were fixed.

What the Housing Mix Means
Set against the average for the towns we cover, these are the figures that matter most for a spray granite job.
About 350 of the 4,817 households around Wyke centre live in flats, 7.8 points below average, so most jobs here are in houses, where getting equipment in and out is usually simpler.
What Building Age Tells Us
Of the 5,010 properties the Valuation Office Agency counts here, about 340 were built since 2000, 10.0 points below average, so most homes here are older, and the survey allows time to check and repair the surface before spraying. Roughly 1,290 were built before 1919, 4.5 points above average, and houses that old have solid walls and lime plaster that can be soft or hollow, so plaster is tested and repaired before any wall is sprayed; period fireplace surrounds also suit a stone finish.
Compared With Nearby Towns

Spray Granite in Wyke: Questions
How much does spray granite cost in Wyke?
Every spray granite job is priced on a fixed written quote after a free survey, because the cost depends on the length of worktop, any upstands, splashback or breakfast bar, and how much repair the surface needs first, and it avoids the templating, fitting and making good that come with new stone worktops.
Can spray granite go over tiled bathroom walls?
Yes, if the tiles are firmly fixed: they are cleaned, degreased and repaired, the stone effect is built up in layers over tiles and grout lines, and a clear topcoat makes it water-resistant for normal bathroom use, though the silicone around the bath and basin must be kept sound because water getting in behind the coating is not covered by the guarantee. In Wyke, 49.9% of properties were built between 1919 and 1972, and bathrooms in houses of that age have usually been retiled at least once, so we check how the current tiles were fixed.
How long does spray granite take, and what is the guarantee?
Most jobs are completed in one day with 24 hours to cure, and the coating carries our 5-year written guarantee against peeling, flaking and adhesion failure caused by our workmanship (not impact, scratches, heat or water damage); it lasts best cleaned with a damp cloth and mild washing-up liquid, never bleach or scouring pads, with a board for chopping and a trivet for hot pans.
Does spray granite suit a small terraced kitchen in Wyke?
Yes: 28.5% of homes in Wyke are terraced, and a short galley or L-shaped worktop run is a quick, contained job; the main thing we check is that the worktop near the sink has not swollen.
Can you spray over old ceramic tiles in Wyke?
Usually, yes: 36.1% of properties in Wyke were built between 1945 and 1972, and bathrooms of that age often have ceramic tiles that are still firmly fixed, which make a good base once cleaned, degreased and keyed; cracked or hollow tiles are fixed first.
Is spray granite a long-term finish for Wyke homeowners?
It is designed for long-term use, and 64.7% of households in Wyke own their home, so most customers plan to live with it for years; it carries a 5-year written guarantee and lasts longer with gentle cleaning, a chopping board and a trivet.
How far is Wyke from ColourHaus?
Our workshop is at Unit 9 Taverners Walk, Sheepscar, Leeds LS7 1AH. Wyke is about 13 miles by road, roughly 18 minutes away, to the south-west. We confirm visit dates and anything distance-related in your fixed-price quote before you commit.
What kind of homes do you work on in Wyke?
All kinds. Around Wyke centre, the most common home is a semi-detached house (49% of households, Census 2021), and 36% of properties were built between 1945 and 1972 (VOA, 2025); a spray granite finish works in any of them, and what changes is access, room size and the materials we find.
