Coloured bath resurfacing near Jericho

Coloured bath resurfacing in Jericho, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Jericho and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix

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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

Questions from Jericho

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Jericho?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Are there extra charges for Jericho?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Repair or replace in Jericho?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire suite

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price
