How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Firsdown

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

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

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Firsdown as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SP5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area

Common problems we fix in Firsdown

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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