Coloured bath resurfacing for Bradwell on Sea homes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Bradwell on Sea

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bradwell on Sea

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Bradwell on Sea

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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

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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Bradwell on Sea

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Our hiring checklist

Bradwell on Sea questions

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Will there be a smell?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover Bradwell on Sea?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bradwell on Sea and the rest of Essex. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
