Coloured bath resurfacing for Mudeford homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Mudeford without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, 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, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

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 fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Common questions in Mudeford

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What affects the price in Mudeford

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Mudeford. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mudeford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Mudeford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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