How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Ash Magna

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

We price from photos so you do not 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.

Advice

FAQs for Ash Magna

Are you accredited?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ash Magna as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Ash Magna, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

What we are called out for in Ash Magna

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Ash Magna

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
