Coloured bath resurfacing in Dibden Purlieu

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Dibden Purlieu

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
