Coloured bath resurfacing in Eglingham

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Eglingham

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Eglingham

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Eglingham, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Eglingham

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Eglingham?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire suite

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Eglingham

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
