Coloured bath resurfacing for Marehill homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Marehill

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Marehill

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

What we’re called out for in Marehill

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Common questions in Marehill

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Sussex.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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 next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Marehill clients choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
