Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Harwood

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work in Harwood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Harwood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price.

When we’d 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 will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Harwood

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

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Harwood, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
