Coloured bath resurfacing in Birchden

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Birchden

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Birchden. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often 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.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.

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

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Birchden

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Birchden. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site

Birchden questions

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
