Coloured bath resurfacing in Exbourne

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Exbourne use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Exbourne

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Exbourne

Do you come to Exbourne?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Exbourne for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Exbourne and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repair or replace in Exbourne?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Exbourne

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Exbourne. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Exbourne. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Exbourne get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Exbourne?

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
