Coloured bath resurfacing near Grassthorpe

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Grassthorpe. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Grassthorpe, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Grassthorpe questions

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How soon can you come?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
