Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Hawks Stones

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hawks Stones

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new 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 shower trays and coloured basins.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Calderdale and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Hawks Stones

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

Repairing versus replacing in Hawks Stones

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs

Hawks Stones: your questions answered

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
