Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Iburndale

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Iburndale

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Iburndale

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you come to Iburndale?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Iburndale. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Iburndale?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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 day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Common problems we fix in Iburndale

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
