About our coloured bath resurfacing in Poulton

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Poulton

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Poulton

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, 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 natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Poulton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
