Coloured bath resurfacing in Northorpe

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Northorpe

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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, typically ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Northorpe

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Northorpe

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Northorpe. Prices do not change with location.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What about the toilet?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Lincolnshire.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Northorpe

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

Look out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Northorpe. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
