Need coloured bath resurfacing in Creeting St Mary?

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Creeting St Mary

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items.

  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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Creeting St Mary, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Creeting St Mary

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Creeting St Mary. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Everywhere in the UK, Creeting St Mary included. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

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