Coloured bath resurfacing near East Lindsey

Coloured bath resurfacing in East Lindsey without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in East Lindsey and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

East Lindsey questions

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for East Lindsey. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Lindsey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in East Lindsey

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around East Lindsey, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Lindsey use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
