About our coloured bath resurfacing in Poolsbrook

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Poolsbrook

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

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Poolsbrook

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you accredited?

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

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work in Poolsbrook?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Poolsbrook from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Repairing versus replacing in Poolsbrook

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Poolsbrook

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
