Coloured bath resurfacing in Lydford Fair Place

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Lydford Fair Place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lydford Fair Place and across Somerset. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare 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 following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Lydford Fair Place

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

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

Choosing a repair company

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Lydford Fair Place. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lydford Fair Place

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace: which is better?
