How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Magpie Green

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Magpie Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace in Magpie Green?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Magpie Green

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

Magpie Green questions

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are there extra charges for Magpie Green?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Magpie Green.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

Across the UK, so Magpie Green is covered. Prices do not change with location.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
