Choosing a repair company

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chilfrome

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

Access to the area
The size and number of damaged areas
Doing more than one item at once
Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

A clear, close picture of the problem area
A photo taken from further back
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Chilfrome, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

The room is protected and ventilated.
Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
The surface is prepared and primed.
The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

Ask for a price

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

Advice

Can you change a coloured bathroom suite to white?

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Chilfrome, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Chilfrome questions

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

When can you do it?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Chilfrome?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT2 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you cover Chilfrome?

We do. We send a technician to Chilfrome for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Repairing versus replacing in Chilfrome

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
