A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is 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, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Grindleford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Grindleford

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare 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, generally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Grindleford customers choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything

See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Grindleford

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Grindleford

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are there extra charges for Grindleford?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
