Need coloured bath resurfacing in Chidham?

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Chidham

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

Every job is backed for twelve months in Chidham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair

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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Chidham

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Chidham

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you come to Chidham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Chidham. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

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

Choosing a repair company

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole suite

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
