Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hart Station

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Hart Station

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hart Station. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What affects the price in Hart Station

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
