Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Brackley

When we’d 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Brackley

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we are called out for in Brackley

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel

Brackley questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northamptonshire.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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 following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
