Coloured bath resurfacing near Holbury

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Holbury without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Holbury and across Hampshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Holbury

Do you come to Holbury?

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

How do I book?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Holbury included. Travel is included in the price.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Landlord and trade work in Holbury

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holbury use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Holbury

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
