Need coloured bath resurfacing in Lime Street?

Lime Street: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Gloucestershire.

Are you accredited?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover the entire of Gloucestershire?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Lime Street

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Lime Street

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.

What we’re called out for in Lime Street

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lime Street as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
