Coloured bath resurfacing near Melksham

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Melksham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Melksham

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Melksham

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Melksham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Melksham

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

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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, generally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Melksham questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is it messy?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What about the toilet?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
