Coloured bath resurfacing in Limekilns, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we’re called out for in Limekilns

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business

See our pricing and bath cost comparison.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Limekilns

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Limekilns get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
