Coloured bath resurfacing for Coulderton homes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Coulderton

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Coulderton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Coulderton

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Coulderton

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

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Coulderton questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Are you accredited?

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Coulderton?

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.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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