Coloured bath resurfacing in Parkgate

Coloured bath resurfacing in Parkgate without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Parkgate

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Parkgate

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Parkgate as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Parkgate

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

What affects the price in Parkgate

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Parkgate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Parkgate, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Parkgate

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
