Need coloured bath resurfacing in Moss Side?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Moss Side

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, 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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Moss Side

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moss Side use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
