Coloured bath resurfacing in Bolham without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Bolham

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bolham. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bolham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Bolham

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bolham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Bolham

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Bolham?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are there extra charges for Bolham?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Common problems we fix in Bolham

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
