Coloured bath resurfacing in Parkgate

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Parkgate

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Parkgate

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Parkgate

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

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

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Parkgate

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

The process

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.

  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 day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

What affects the price in Parkgate

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
