Book coloured bath resurfacing in Birds Edge

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing in Birds Edge without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Birds Edge?

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

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Common questions in Birds Edge

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Birds Edge

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
