About our coloured bath resurfacing in Goodnestone

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare 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 next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When to call us in Goodnestone

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Goodnestone?

When a repair isn’t the answer

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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
