10 questions to ask before booking

Coloured bath resurfacing in Meltham without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Meltham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key 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 about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Meltham questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

When can you do it?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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.

What we work on

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