Our hiring checklist

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Bridgefoot

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Bridgefoot

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What about the toilet?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Bridgefoot is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Bridgefoot

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bridgefoot, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
