Questions from Oakridge

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you come to Oakridge?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Oakridge from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Oakridge, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When to call us in Oakridge

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Oakridge. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in Oakridge and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oakridge use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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