About our coloured bath resurfacing in Mossy Lea

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mossy Lea and across Wigan. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common questions in Mossy Lea

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Mossy Lea clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
