Coloured bath resurfacing in Nibley

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Nibley

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Nibley and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Nibley. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise 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.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Nibley get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Nibley

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Nibley: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What about the toilet?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BS37 postcode.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Repairing versus replacing in Nibley

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Nibley customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
