Coloured bath resurfacing in Lintmill, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Lintmill

Are there extra charges for Lintmill?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Lintmill

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Lintmill. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Lintmill

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Lintmill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Common problems we fix in Lintmill

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key 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, usually until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
