Coloured bath resurfacing near Exton

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Exton

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Exton

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Exton

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Exton?

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

Common reasons people in Exton contact us are:

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

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Exton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

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.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
