Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Ockford Ridge

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Surrey and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Ockford Ridge without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ockford Ridge and across Surrey. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Ockford Ridge: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you cover Ockford Ridge?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ockford Ridge and the rest of Surrey. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Are there extra charges for Ockford Ridge?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Ockford Ridge, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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, usually ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
