Coloured bath resurfacing for Holy Vale homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Holy Vale

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Holy Vale

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Holy Vale

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

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Holy Vale

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, 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)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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 following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
