About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pockthorpe

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you 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. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key 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, usually ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Pockthorpe

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

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

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
