Coloured bath resurfacing in Allerford

Coloured bath resurfacing in Allerford, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Allerford

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

10 questions to ask before booking

Allerford questions

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Repair or replace in Allerford?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Allerford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Allerford

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What affects the price in Allerford

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

Most clients in Allerford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
