Book coloured bath resurfacing in Haccombe

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Haccombe without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Haccombe: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you come to Haccombe?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Haccombe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What affects the price in Haccombe

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Haccombe. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When to call us in Haccombe

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
