Colt's Hill questions

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

When can you do it?

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

What about the toilet?

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Colt's Hill, done in place

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Colt's Hill. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Colt's Hill get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Colt's Hill customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we’re called out for in Colt's Hill

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colt's Hill

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Colt's Hill

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 usually the cheaper route.
