About our coloured bath resurfacing in Linton

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Linton

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do you cover the entire of Cambridgeshire?

All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Linton

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.

Common reasons people in Linton contact us include:

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

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place

Read our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Linton

For anyone letting property in or around Linton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
