Coloured bath resurfacing in Barsby without replacing anything

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Questions from Barsby

Do you work in Barsby?

We do. Technicians travel to Barsby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Barsby?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barsby. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Barsby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Barsby

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

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
