About our coloured bath resurfacing in Harlow Wood

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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, typically ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Harlow Wood

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually 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
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Harlow Wood

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work in Harlow Wood?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Harlow Wood. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Harlow Wood?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your NG18 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What about the toilet?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Work for landlords and builders

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

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Harlow Wood. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Harlow Wood

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
