Coloured bath resurfacing in Ewood

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Ewood. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

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.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Ewood

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ewood?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Look out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Ewood

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ewood

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ewood, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
