Coloured bath resurfacing near Little Ellingham

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Little Ellingham

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new 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 a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Little Ellingham: your questions answered

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Little Ellingham. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.

Landlord and trade work in Little Ellingham

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Little Ellingham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Little Ellingham. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Little Ellingham

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

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
