When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Hill

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 to keep costs down.

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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 will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

FAQs for North Hill

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Are you accredited?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Common problems we fix in North Hill

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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