Coloured bath resurfacing for Burton homes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Burton, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Burton. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Burton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Burton

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Burton

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

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Burton?

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

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
