Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Archdeacon Newton

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Archdeacon Newton

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Darlington. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Archdeacon Newton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Archdeacon Newton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

Questions from Archdeacon Newton

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Archdeacon Newton?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Archdeacon Newton and the rest of Darlington. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Archdeacon Newton. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
