Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Dyer's End

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Dyer's End and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Dyer's End without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common problems we fix in Dyer's End

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Dyer's End

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Dyer's End is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you work in Dyer's End?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dyer's End. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Landlord and trade work in Dyer's End

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price
