Coloured bath resurfacing in Brancepeth, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. 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.

What affects the price in Brancepeth

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Brancepeth. What changes the price is:

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

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Details of any past repairs

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Brancepeth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Brancepeth

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Brancepeth

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
