Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bulwick. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job without visiting.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bulwick without replacing anything

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Bulwick?

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

Look out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Questions from Bulwick

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Bulwick?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
