Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Avebury

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Avebury. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Avebury, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Questions from Avebury

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Repair or replace in Avebury?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Avebury

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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 next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Avebury, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
