Coloured bath resurfacing in Great Walsingham, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Great Walsingham and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What affects the price in Great Walsingham

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Walsingham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Great Walsingham

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

We cover the whole UK, including Great Walsingham and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price
