Look out for any of the following:

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

Our hiring checklist

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Frenchmoor

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Frenchmoor

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Frenchmoor customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves 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 we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

What affects the price in Frenchmoor

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Frenchmoor, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
