How to compare quotes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Arnesby without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Arnesby as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Arnesby

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Will you leave a mess?

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

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.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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)

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

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Arnesby

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Arnesby clients choose us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Arnesby

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
