When to call us in Brignall

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

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Brignall

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Brignall?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DL12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare 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, generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brignall use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
