Coloured bath resurfacing in Coate

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Coate

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Coate

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coate use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
