Coloured bath resurfacing for Mannings Heath homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Mannings Heath

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Mannings Heath

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Mannings Heath. What changes the price is:

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

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Mannings Heath?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
