About our coloured bath resurfacing in Perry Vale

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Perry Vale: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Perry Vale

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
