Coloured bath resurfacing near Belle Vue

Coloured bath resurfacing in Belle Vue, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in Belle Vue and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Belle Vue

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Belle Vue: your questions answered

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are there extra charges for Belle Vue?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Belle Vue?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour 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 will get a fixed figure.
