About our coloured bath resurfacing in Carlton Miniott

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

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Carlton Miniott?

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.

Common reasons people in Carlton Miniott contact us include:

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Carlton Miniott, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Carlton Miniott

  • Whole bathroom suites

Landlord and trade work in Carlton Miniott

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carlton Miniott use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Carlton Miniott: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can you do it?

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

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
