How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare 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, generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Common problems we fix in Picket Piece

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Common reasons people in Picket Piece contact us are:

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

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Picket Piece

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

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SP11 postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work in Picket Piece?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Picket Piece from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
