Coloured bath resurfacing near Pencombe

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pencombe

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t 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.

Common questions in Pencombe

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Herefordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Pencombe?

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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)

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