Coloured bath resurfacing near Gorof

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Gorof

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Gorof

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Gorof: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover Gorof?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Gorof. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Gorof

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Gorof. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gorof. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
