Heathfield: your questions answered

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Heathfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

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

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Common problems we fix in Heathfield

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

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

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included
