Coloured bath resurfacing for Neacroft homes

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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 following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Neacroft

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Neacroft

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Neacroft

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for these signs:

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

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Neacroft

Replacing a coloured suite involves 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, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Neacroft customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
