Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Cubert

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cubert

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Cubert

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Cubert

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cubert. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Questions from Cubert

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Cubert included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When to call us in Cubert

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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.
