Coloured bath resurfacing for Lochdon homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Lochdon

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. 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 generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lochdon

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Common questions in Lochdon

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you are in Lochdon and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white 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 items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
