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 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. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hobbles Green without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Hobbles Green

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Hobbles Green?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CB8 postcode.

Do you come to Hobbles Green?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hobbles Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Repairing versus replacing in Hobbles Green

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hobbles Green

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hobbles Green

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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