Coloured bath resurfacing in Brooklands

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Brooklands without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Brooklands: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Brooklands?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Brooklands, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
