Coloured bath resurfacing in Bathley

Landlord and trade work in Bathley

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bathley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Bathley

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Bathley?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Bathley

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Bathley?

We do. We send a technician to Bathley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Bathley and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How soon can you come?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Common problems we fix in Bathley

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

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What affects the price in Bathley

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bathley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

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

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Most customers in Bathley get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
