Coloured bath resurfacing near Barroway Drove

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Barroway Drove, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barroway Drove. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Barroway Drove: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PE38 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Barroway Drove. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Barroway Drove get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
