About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cimla

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We’re frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Cimla

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Whole bathroom suites

Should I try a DIY kit 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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What affects the price in Cimla

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is 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 will reply with a fixed price.
