Need coloured bath resurfacing in Newgate Street?

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Newgate Street. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newgate Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Newgate Street, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Newgate Street

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newgate Street use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we are called out for in Newgate Street

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

Look out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to care for the finish
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Newgate Street

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How do I book?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
