Coloured bath resurfacing near Bay Horse

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Bay Horse

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Bay Horse

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover Bay Horse?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bay Horse and the rest of Lancashire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What we are called out for in Bay Horse

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Questions to ask before you book

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bay Horse use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Bay Horse

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Most customers in Bay Horse get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bay Horse. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
