Coloured bath resurfacing for North Nibley homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in North Nibley

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in North Nibley

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to North Nibley. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in North Nibley

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

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

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL11 postcode.

What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
