Coloured bath resurfacing in Compstall without replacing anything

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Stockport. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Compstall

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

Customers usually contact us about:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Compstall

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Compstall?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SK6 postcode.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Stockport.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Compstall. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Compstall. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Compstall clients choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
