About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hook

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

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 tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hook. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common problems we fix in Hook

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for any of the following:

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

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hook, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Hook

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you work in Hook?

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

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.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
