Coloured bath resurfacing in Preston on Wye without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Preston on Wye

Which areas do you work in?

All of Herefordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Repair or replace in Preston on Wye?

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Preston on Wye. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
