Coloured bath resurfacing near Mid Holmwood

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Mid Holmwood

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mid Holmwood and across Surrey. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Mid Holmwood?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Mid Holmwood?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Look out for these signs:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mid Holmwood use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Questions from Mid Holmwood

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Mid Holmwood?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

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 there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
