Coloured bath resurfacing in Garton

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing in Garton without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Garton and across East Riding of Yorkshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

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 without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Garton

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When we’d 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 booking.

Materials we work on in Garton

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Garton

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

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

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HU11 postcode.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Garton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Garton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Garton?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
