Coloured bath resurfacing for Hextable homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hextable, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Hextable

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

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

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hextable

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Landlord and trade work in Hextable

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hextable use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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 following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
