Coloured bath resurfacing in Hose without replacing anything

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

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.

10 questions to ask before you book

Hose questions

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

What about the toilet?

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

How soon can you come?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Hose

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hose. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hose

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Hose, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

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 does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
