Coloured bath resurfacing in Manton

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Manton

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Manton

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What affects the price in Manton

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Manton. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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