Coloured bath resurfacing for Gosford homes

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Gosford without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Gosford

If you manage property in Gosford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

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 usually takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common questions in Gosford

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

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

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX11 postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
