Coloured bath resurfacing for East Budleigh homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No extra charge for your area

Coloured bath resurfacing in East Budleigh without replacing anything

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EX9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including East Budleigh. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

East Budleigh questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

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

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

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

Before you book anyone

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
