Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Golden Cross

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new 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 faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

In a village like Golden Cross, some baths have been in for many years. If the bath is sound, coloured bath resurfacing gives it a new lease of life without disturbing the rest of the room.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Golden Cross

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Golden Cross?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • 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

If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as The Parish Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and coloured bath resurfacing gives it years more use.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Golden Cross

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Golden Cross as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes. In a village or hamlet like Golden Cross, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the coloured bath resurfacing works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
