Coloured bath resurfacing for Cray's Pond homes

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cray's Pond without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

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

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

FAQs for Cray's Pond

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Do you cover Cray's Pond?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cray's Pond and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What areas do you cover?

All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

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.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)

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