Coloured bath resurfacing for Church Laneham homes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Church Laneham

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Church Laneham. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Church Laneham questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you accredited?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
