How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Pattiswick

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Pattiswick, and we will reply with a fixed price.

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Pattiswick questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Are there extra charges for Pattiswick?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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