Coloured bath resurfacing in Blackburn, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Blackburn?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Blackburn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What affects the price in Blackburn

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Blackburn

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Are there extra charges for Blackburn?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will it make a mess?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your AB21 postcode.

How it works

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

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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 following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Blackburn

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Blackburn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
