Coloured bath resurfacing near Northumberland Heath

Coloured bath resurfacing in Northumberland Heath without replacing anything

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Northumberland Heath get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

FAQs for Northumberland Heath

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What we are called out for in Northumberland Heath

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Northumberland Heath?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
