Coloured bath resurfacing in Martins Heron

Repairing versus replacing in Martins Heron

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Martins Heron clients choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Coloured bath resurfacing in Martins Heron without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When to call us in Martins Heron

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

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

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

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Martins Heron as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Martins Heron

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
