Coloured bath resurfacing in Chillerton

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Chillerton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Chillerton

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do the materials smell?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Chillerton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Chillerton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What about the toilet?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chillerton

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chillerton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Chillerton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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