How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Broom

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Broom and across Central Bedfordshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Repair or replace in Broom?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Broom

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What affects the price in Broom

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Broom. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Broom: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you cover Broom?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Broom and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Central Bedfordshire.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Broom
