Coloured bath resurfacing in Chesham

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

  • We leave the room as we found it

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chesham

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Chesham

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

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.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

If you’re in Chesham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Chesham. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Chesham, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chesham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Chesham

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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