Coloured bath resurfacing in Corringham

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Corringham

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Thurrock. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Corringham questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Corringham?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SS17 postcode.

Do you cover the whole of Thurrock?

We cover the entire UK, including Corringham and the rest of Thurrock. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Corringham

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Thurrock and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Corringham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SS17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Corringham

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
