Coloured bath resurfacing for Newbold homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Newbold

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Newbold?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. 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
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Repairing versus replacing in Newbold

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When we would 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Newbold

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

For landlords and businesses

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.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LE67 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
