FAQs for Linton-on-Ouse

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Linton-on-Ouse. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you cover the whole of York?

We cover the whole UK, including Linton-on-Ouse and the rest of York. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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.

Materials we repair

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

If you’re in Linton-on-Ouse and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Linton-on-Ouse as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Linton-on-Ouse

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for any of the following:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Repairing versus replacing in Linton-on-Ouse

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
