Coloured bath resurfacing for Kirk Yetholm homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Kirk Yetholm

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kirk Yetholm as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Kirk Yetholm

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Kirk Yetholm

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Are there extra charges for Kirk Yetholm?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens next?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
