How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Frostlane

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frostlane use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before booking

Common problems we fix in Frostlane

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

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

FAQs for Frostlane

Do I have to be there?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Frostlane

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SO45 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
