Coloured bath resurfacing in Kirdford

Coloured bath resurfacing in Kirdford without replacing anything

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Older homes around Kirdford may have baths that have been in place for decades. A sound older bath is well worth repairing without disturbing the rest of the room.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kirdford

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Kirdford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Kirdford

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Rented homes near Billingshurst station (about 4.7 miles east) change hands frequently, and repairing coloured suites between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Questions from Kirdford

I let a flat near Billingshurst station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly.

My house in Kirdford is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Usually, yes. Older coloured suites are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us photos and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you come to Kirdford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Kirdford and the rest of West Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Kirdford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it. In a village or hamlet like Kirdford, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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, generally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

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 without taking anything out. Older homes around Kirdford may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Kirdford

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes cost nothing and you are under no obligation.
