Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Braystones

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Braystones

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What about the toilet?

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

Do you cover Braystones?

We do. We send a technician to Braystones for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Braystones

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Braystones, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repair or replace in Braystones?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Braystones

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for these signs:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work 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. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Braystones. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Braystones, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
