Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Abbey Dore

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Abbey Dore and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Abbey Dore

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Abbey Dore clients choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Abbey Dore?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire suite

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
