About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pool Quay

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Pool Quay: your questions answered

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Pool Quay?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you cover Pool Quay?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Pool Quay. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Pool Quay. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white 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 photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Pool Quay

  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
