Coloured bath resurfacing for Acresford homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Acresford

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Acresford

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

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • 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

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Advice

What affects the price in Acresford

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Acresford. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Acresford

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
