Coloured bath resurfacing in Affpuddle

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Affpuddle without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Affpuddle

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Are you accredited?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Affpuddle

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Common problems we fix in Affpuddle

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, 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.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
