Coloured bath resurfacing in Chediston

Common questions in Chediston

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP19 postcode.

How do I book?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Chediston and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Chediston

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When to call us in Chediston

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Chediston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
