Need coloured bath resurfacing in Newtown?

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Newtown

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Newtown?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do I need to be at home?

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Newtown

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • 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

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Newtown. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Newtown, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
