About our coloured bath resurfacing in Idmiston

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Idmiston

For anyone letting property in or around Idmiston, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Idmiston, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Idmiston questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

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

Common problems we fix in Idmiston

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
