Coloured bath resurfacing in Battlefield

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Battlefield

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Battlefield: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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 can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Battlefield, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

What affects the price in Battlefield

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Battlefield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Battlefield?

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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.
