Coloured bath resurfacing near Hellescott

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hellescott

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hellescott

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we are called out for in Hellescott

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Hellescott

Do you work in Hellescott?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hellescott. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Hellescott clients choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price
