What we are called out for in Langstone

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langstone as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

FAQs for Langstone

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Are you accredited?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Langstone. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We leave the room as we found it

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
