Need coloured bath resurfacing in Ardingly?

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ardingly

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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.

Ardingly questions

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Choosing a repair company

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
