How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hunston

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Hunston customers choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

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

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

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.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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 questions in Hunston

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across West Sussex.

Do you come to Hunston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hunston and the rest of West Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
