What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price 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. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire suite

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Eaton Socon

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

What we are called out for in Eaton Socon

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before booking

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eaton Socon

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
