Coloured bath resurfacing in Aimes Green

Common questions in Aimes Green

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work in Aimes Green?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Aimes Green and the rest of Essex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Aimes Green?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Aimes Green, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Aimes Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
