Coloured bath resurfacing in Larkton without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare 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, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When to call us in Larkton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CH3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Larkton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Larkton?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
