Coloured bath resurfacing for Hartshead homes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hartshead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hartshead, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Hartshead?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Hartshead

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hartshead

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hartshead as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Questions from Hartshead

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite.

  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. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WF15 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 will tell you honestly.
