About our coloured bath resurfacing in Badley

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Badley and across Suffolk. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to compare quotes

Questions from Badley

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

For landlords and businesses

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.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
