Need coloured bath resurfacing in Hadham Ford?

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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 next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hadham Ford

Most suites take one or 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 a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Hadham Ford and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Hadham Ford: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we’re called out for in Hadham Ford

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

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
