Coloured bath resurfacing in Alexandria without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Alexandria and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Alexandria?

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • 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 does not match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

  • We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Alexandria

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Alexandria.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire suite

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Alexandria, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
