Coloured bath resurfacing in Benville, done in place

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Common problems we fix in Benville

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Benville?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Questions from Benville

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Benville.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Benville?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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)

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

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Benville

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
