Coloured bath resurfacing for Carronshore homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Carronshore

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Carronshore as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Carronshore

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Carronshore. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
