Coloured bath resurfacing in Chideock

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chideock

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Chideock and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Chideock

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 usually cheaper.

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.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Chideock. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DT6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Chideock customers choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
