Coloured bath resurfacing in Cloughton Newlands without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Cloughton Newlands questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cloughton Newlands

For anyone letting property in or around Cloughton Newlands, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Cloughton Newlands

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit

When to call us in Cloughton Newlands

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Most clients in Cloughton Newlands get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
