About our coloured bath resurfacing in Melincourt

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What we’re called out for in Melincourt

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Melincourt?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you cover Melincourt?

What affects the price in Melincourt

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
