Coloured bath resurfacing near New Houghton

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in New Houghton

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in New Houghton as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in New Houghton

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to New Houghton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to New Houghton and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Nottinghamshire.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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 following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Most clients in New Houghton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in New Houghton

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

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in New Houghton?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why New Houghton clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What affects the price in New Houghton

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Houghton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. 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 Nottinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
