Coloured bath resurfacing for Elmfield homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Elmfield customers choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Elmfield

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There is 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Elmfield

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

What we work on

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