Need coloured bath resurfacing in Great Dalby?

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Great Dalby

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, 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.

Materials we work on in Great Dalby

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

What we are called out for in Great Dalby

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for these signs:

  • A suite that doesn’t 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

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 no obligation.
