Coloured bath resurfacing in Denton

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Denton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Denton

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Are there extra charges for Denton?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?

We work UK-wide, so Denton is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you come to Denton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Denton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairing versus replacing in Denton

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If you manage property in Denton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
