Coloured bath resurfacing near Florence

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Florence

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Florence

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Florence. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ST3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Florence

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Florence?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your ST3 postcode.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you cover Florence?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Florence from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Florence

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.

If you manage property in Florence, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Florence

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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