About our coloured bath resurfacing in Nether Compton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. 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 price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nether Compton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Nether Compton clients choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Read our prices page and bath cost comparison.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Nether Compton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
