When to call us in Ewood Bridge

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Coloured bath resurfacing in Ewood Bridge, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Ewood Bridge

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ewood Bridge

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Ewood Bridge

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What areas do you cover?

All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
