Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Dodington

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Dodington

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’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Dodington?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Dodington. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Dodington

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Dodington

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Landlord and trade work in Dodington

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
