How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Norton Lees

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Norton Lees and across Sheffield. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 Norton Lees

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Questions from Norton Lees

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can landlords book you?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you cover the entire of Sheffield?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Norton Lees

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
