Coloured bath resurfacing in Morton-on-Swale

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Morton-on-Swale

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Morton-on-Swale

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Morton-on-Swale

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DL7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, 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 key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Morton-on-Swale

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Morton-on-Swale clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Morton-on-Swale, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
