About our coloured bath resurfacing in Preston

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Preston

Do you work in Preston?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Preston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE15 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Preston. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace in Preston?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
