Coloured bath resurfacing in Bucknall, done in place

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled 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 hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Questions from Bucknall

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Bucknall?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bucknall, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
