Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Marton Grove

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Marton Grove

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures 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

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  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. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry

You don’t need a survey visit. 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Marton Grove

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Marton Grove.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Repair or replace in Marton Grove?
