About our coloured bath resurfacing in Abbeystead

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Abbeystead questions

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Abbeystead and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Abbeystead.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: 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 price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Abbeystead. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Abbeystead?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abbeystead

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abbeystead use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.
