About our coloured bath resurfacing in Bishops Cannings

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bishops Cannings

Hospitality businesses 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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Bishops Cannings

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Do you come to Bishops Cannings?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Bishops Cannings from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
