Coloured bath resurfacing in Gibraltar, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common problems we fix in Gibraltar

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 normally call us when they notice something like this:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Gibraltar

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you cover Gibraltar?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gibraltar for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
