Coloured bath resurfacing near Dunmore

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Dunmore

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Why Dunmore customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Dunmore

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

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

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can landlords book you?

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Dunmore?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Dunmore

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dunmore. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Dunmore and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
