Need coloured bath resurfacing in Chartway Street?

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Chartway Street. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Chartway Street

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Chartway Street: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What do you need from me?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Chartway Street. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we’re called out for in Chartway Street

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
