Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Chelveston

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chelveston

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

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

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from pictures so you don’t 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our pricing or bath cost comparison.

Honest limits

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)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Chelveston

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often 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.

Common questions in Chelveston

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover Chelveston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Chelveston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
