How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hackthorn

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Clients usually contact us about:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Hackthorn

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

If you manage property in Hackthorn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Hackthorn. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hackthorn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Hackthorn

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you come to Hackthorn?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hackthorn from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are there extra charges for Hackthorn?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
