How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Lyde Green

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Lyde Green

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Lyde Green customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Lyde Green

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

Look out for any of the following:

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

FAQs for Lyde Green

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lyde Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Lyde Green

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

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