Coloured bath resurfacing for Illshaw Heath homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Illshaw Heath, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

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 without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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.

Illshaw Heath questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you cover the entire of Warwickshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Illshaw Heath. Prices don’t change with location.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When a repair is not the answer

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Illshaw Heath as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
