Coloured bath resurfacing in Cold Higham

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cold Higham

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

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. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Cold Higham clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Cold Higham

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs 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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job.

Questions from Cold Higham

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.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Cold Higham included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover Cold Higham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cold Higham and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
