What affects the price in Cobridge

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

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cobridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Cobridge, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cobridge without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

FAQs for Cobridge

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

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

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

How the visit works

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 can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Cobridge

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
