Coloured bath resurfacing in Hempton

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hempton

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hempton as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Hempton questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

What information do you need?

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

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Hempton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Hempton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hempton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
