Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Newbold

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Newbold without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Newbold

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace in Newbold?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Common problems we fix in Newbold

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newbold

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
