Coloured bath resurfacing for Colesbrook homes

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Coloured bath resurfacing in Colesbrook 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. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Colesbrook. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most customers in Colesbrook 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.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colesbrook use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What we’re called out for in Colesbrook

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Questions from Colesbrook

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SP8 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
