Coloured bath resurfacing for Apedale homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Apedale

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Apedale as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

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

What affects the price in Apedale

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Apedale

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

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

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

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Apedale?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Apedale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Apedale

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Apedale

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Apedale?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

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

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Do you cover Apedale?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Apedale from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
