Coloured bath resurfacing for Milton homes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Milton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Coloured bath resurfacing in Milton without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Milton

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

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

Common questions in Milton

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your OX14 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?

We work UK-wide, so Milton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
