Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Christchurch

Coloured bath resurfacing in Christchurch without replacing anything

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

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Christchurch as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Christchurch

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Christchurch. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Advice

Questions from Christchurch

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Are there extra charges for Christchurch?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

About Christchurch

All of BH23 is covered. From High Street, Station Road and Hunt Road or a nearby road, a technician can come to you. You’ll find Christchurch on the A35 and A337, so it’s easy for us to reach. We also travel to Somerford (1 mile south-east), Purewell (1 mile south-west), Burton (1 mile north-west), Stanpit (1 mile south) and Hoburne Park (1 mile east). Further out, we also cover Wimborne Minster (11 miles north-west), Verwood (11 miles north-west), Ferndown (8 miles north-west), Broadstone (11 miles west), Corfe Mullen (12 miles west) and Swanage (13 miles south-west). As one of the bigger places in Dorset, Christchurch is somewhere we visit often.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Christchurch

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • 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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
