About our coloured bath resurfacing in Falsgrave

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole suite

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Falsgrave: your questions answered

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you work in Falsgrave?

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
