Coloured bath resurfacing for Bandonhill homes

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bandonhill, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Bandonhill questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bandonhill.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Will there be a smell?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bandonhill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire suite

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Bandonhill

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bandonhill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Common problems we fix in Bandonhill

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.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
