Coloured bath resurfacing in Melton Constable

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Melton Constable

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Melton Constable

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not 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)

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

Materials we work on in Melton Constable

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
