Coloured bath resurfacing in Pegsdon

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Pegsdon

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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

Pegsdon: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work in Pegsdon?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Pegsdon and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Repair or replace in Pegsdon?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
