Coloured bath resurfacing near Northover

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Northover

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Northover

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