Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Bruisyard

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bruisyard without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bruisyard. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Bruisyard

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Bruisyard, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
