Repairing versus replacing in Lower Nazeing

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Nazeing, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process

We turn 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 we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What we are called out for in Lower Nazeing

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Lower Nazeing questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

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.

Do the materials smell?

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

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
