About our coloured bath resurfacing in Askerswell

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 work on in Askerswell

FAQs for Askerswell

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Askerswell?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Askerswell?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Askerswell. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Askerswell

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What preparation is included

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Askerswell. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
