Coloured bath resurfacing in Hillsdale

Honest limits

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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hillsdale, done in place

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Hillsdale?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Hillsdale

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

FAQs for Hillsdale

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What information do you need?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work in Hillsdale?

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

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
