Coloured bath resurfacing near Longside

Landlord and trade work in Longside

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Longside

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do I need to be at home?

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Longside

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • 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

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Longside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.
