How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Oxenpill, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Oxenpill, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxenpill

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oxenpill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Oxenpill questions

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Oxenpill

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Oxenpill

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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