Coloured bath resurfacing for Overton homes

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Overton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Overton without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, 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.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Overton clients choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses 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.

When to call us in Overton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

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

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched

Overton: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
