Coloured bath resurfacing in Borgh

Coloured bath resurfacing in Borgh, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Borgh

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

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

Borgh: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are you accredited?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare 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, usually ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Borgh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place

Common problems we fix in Borgh

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

What affects the price in Borgh

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
