Coloured bath resurfacing for Longville in the Dale homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Longville in the Dale, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

Longville in the Dale questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

When to call us in Longville in the Dale

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Longville in the Dale. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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 next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
