Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Otterbourne

Coloured bath resurfacing in Otterbourne, 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 frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Otterbourne get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Otterbourne

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work in Otterbourne?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Otterbourne. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, 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 quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Otterbourne

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

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Otterbourne?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page or bath cost comparison.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Otterbourne

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
