Need coloured bath resurfacing in Eccleston?

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Eccleston, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is 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, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Eccleston

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Eccleston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eccleston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Eccleston?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

Eccleston: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Eccleston. Prices don’t change with location.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Repair or replace in Eccleston?

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Eccleston clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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.
