Coloured bath resurfacing near Claverton

Coloured bath resurfacing in Claverton without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • 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

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Claverton: your questions answered

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Claverton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace in Claverton?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Claverton customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

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.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
