Coloured Bath Resurfacing across Gateshead

About coloured bath resurfacing in Gateshead

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How the damage happens

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Gateshead. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Gateshead and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot 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)

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gateshead

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place.

Common questions in Gateshead

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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