  • Items cracked right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cossall

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Cossall

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Cossall

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • 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
  • Faded or patchy colour

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Cossall

If you manage property in Cossall, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

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

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Cossall, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
