Coloured bath resurfacing in Cold Overton, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Cold Overton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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 day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

How to compare quotes

Cold Overton: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Are there extra charges for Cold Overton?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you come to Cold Overton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cold Overton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Cold Overton

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business
