Coloured bath resurfacing in Earsdon

Repair or replace in Earsdon?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Earsdon

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Tyneside. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Earsdon

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

When to call us in Earsdon

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

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Questions from Earsdon

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Is it messy?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you cover the whole of North Tyneside?

We work UK-wide, so Earsdon is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Earsdon and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Earsdon

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

  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. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Earsdon, and we will reply with a fixed price.
