Coloured bath resurfacing in Heskin

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Heskin

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Heskin?

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heskin

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Heskin. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Heskin, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Heskin customers choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Heskin

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

The whole UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Heskin?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
