Coloured bath resurfacing near Braythorn

Coloured bath resurfacing in Braythorn, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Braythorn

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Braythorn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Braythorn, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Braythorn

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Braythorn

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Braythorn. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Braythorn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Braythorn, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
