Coloured bath resurfacing in Huyton with Roby, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s 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 Huyton with Roby

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

If you are in Huyton with Roby and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Huyton with Roby

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: 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.

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Huyton with Roby

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Huyton with Roby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
