When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bere Ferrers without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Bere Ferrers

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Bere Ferrers. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
