Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Kilmaurs, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Kilmaurs

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
