Coloured bath resurfacing in Newbridge

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newbridge

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbridge use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Newbridge

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Newbridge

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

How to compare quotes

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EH28 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

FAQs for Newbridge

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Newbridge. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

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 frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
