Coloured bath resurfacing in Bannister Green

Landlord and trade work in Bannister Green

For anyone letting property in or around Bannister Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Bannister Green

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Bannister Green clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we’d advise against a repair

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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Bannister Green

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

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
