Coloured bath resurfacing in East Cowton, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in East Cowton

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Honest limits

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)

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

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in East Cowton

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is it messy?

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

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
