About our coloured bath resurfacing in Letwell

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

How do I book?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What affects the price in Letwell

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
