Coloured bath resurfacing for Gratton homes

Repair or replace in Gratton?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Coloured bath resurfacing in Gratton, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we’re called out for in Gratton

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

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

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Gratton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Gratton

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Gratton

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you come to Gratton?

We do. We send a technician to Gratton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
