Coloured bath resurfacing near Pathhead

Coloured bath resurfacing in Pathhead without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

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?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Pathhead, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Pathhead

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Read our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Landlord and trade work in Pathhead

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What affects the price in Pathhead

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pathhead. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire suite

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Common problems we fix in Pathhead

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

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Pathhead

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
