Coloured bath resurfacing in Ibthorpe

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ibthorpe

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Ibthorpe and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Questions from Ibthorpe

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Ibthorpe?

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Ibthorpe

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Landlord and trade work in Ibthorpe

For anyone letting property in or around Ibthorpe, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
