Coloured bath resurfacing for Crosshill homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Crosshill without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

What affects the price in Crosshill

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Crosshill questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Crosshill?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

When to call us in Crosshill

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.

Look out for these signs:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
