Coloured bath resurfacing in Padanaram, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Angus. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Padanaram, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

FAQs for Padanaram

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Padanaram?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DD8 postcode.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
