Coloured bath resurfacing in Heysham without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Heysham. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Heysham

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Heysham

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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 day after.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
