Coloured bath resurfacing near Didcot

Coloured bath resurfacing in Didcot, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Didcot

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Didcot questions

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you come to Didcot?

We do. Technicians travel to Didcot from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Didcot use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Didcot. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

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

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
