Coloured bath resurfacing near Heathfield

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Heathfield, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

FAQs for Heathfield

Do you cover Heathfield?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Heathfield from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Heathfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Heathfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
