Coloured bath resurfacing in Cleethorpes, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Cleethorpes

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the whole UK

See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Cleethorpes

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cleethorpes

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North East Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Cleethorpes questions

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you come to Cleethorpes?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cleethorpes and the rest of North East Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

What affects the price in Cleethorpes

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cleethorpes. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
