Coloured bath resurfacing in Old Dean

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Old Dean

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Old Dean: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Old Dean

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Old Dean

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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