Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Bockmer End

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we cannot put right

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Bockmer End

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

FAQs for Bockmer End

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

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.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Bockmer End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
