Coloured bath resurfacing for Prudhoe homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Prudhoe without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When to call us in Prudhoe

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Prudhoe

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Landlords, agents and businesses in Prudhoe

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Prudhoe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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, typically until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Prudhoe

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Prudhoe?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Prudhoe and the rest of Northumberland. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
