Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Dobs Hill

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Dobs Hill

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, 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 before you book.

Materials we work on in Dobs Hill

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins

Questions from Dobs Hill

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you work in Dobs Hill?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Dobs Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Dobs Hill. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Common problems we fix in Dobs Hill

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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

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.
