Need coloured bath resurfacing in Chester?

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Chester, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Chester

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Chester is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Chester.

When can you do it?

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

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why Chester customers choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Chester

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Customers normally contact us about:

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

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
