Coloured bath resurfacing for Barholm homes

When to call us in Barholm

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Coloured bath resurfacing in Barholm, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Barholm, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Questions from Barholm

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Barholm. Prices do not change with location.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

What affects the price in Barholm

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Barholm. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
