Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Barkisland

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Which areas do you work in?

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace in Barkisland?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
