Coloured bath resurfacing in Nun Monkton

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t 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.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Nun Monkton, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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, normally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Nun Monkton

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • If travel is included in the price

Repair or replace in Nun Monkton?
