Coloured bath resurfacing in Long Riston without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Long Riston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job 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. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Questions from Long Riston

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Long Riston is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

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

How do I book?

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

Landlord and trade work in Long Riston

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Long Riston

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • 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 does not match a new bathroom

Repairing versus replacing in Long Riston
