Coloured bath resurfacing in Buckminster

Coloured bath resurfacing in Buckminster, done in place

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

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key 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 following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What affects the price in Buckminster

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

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

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Buckminster

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What about the toilet?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you cover Buckminster?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Buckminster. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

When to call us in Buckminster

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

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Buckminster?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
