Coloured bath resurfacing for Healds Green homes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Healds Green

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that won’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Questions from Healds Green

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Healds Green.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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.
