About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hexton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Peace of mind is built in: 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hexton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 normally the cheaper route.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

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

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

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of 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.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Hexton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?

Across the UK, so Hexton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you come to Hexton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hexton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
