Coloured bath resurfacing near Ogston

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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, generally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Ogston, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ogston

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

Most people get in touch 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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Ogston

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ogston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Questions from Ogston

Can you price it without visiting?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ogston?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ogston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
