Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Brafield-on-the-Green

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Brafield-on-the-Green

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Brafield-on-the-Green

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Brafield-on-the-Green. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

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.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

FAQs for Brafield-on-the-Green

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

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

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 typically cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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, typically ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
