Coloured bath resurfacing near Lordington

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Lordington

Can you price it without visiting?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Lordington

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lordington

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Lordington, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we are called out for in Lordington

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lordington. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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