About our coloured bath resurfacing in Irby Hill

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. 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. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How to compare quotes

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Irby Hill get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Irby Hill questions

What happens after I send photos?

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What about the toilet?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Irby Hill is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
