Coloured bath resurfacing for Greenhills homes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Greenhills

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Greenhills and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Greenhills

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
