About our coloured bath resurfacing in Quernmore

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Quernmore as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Quernmore questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lancashire.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Common problems we fix in Quernmore

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • 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
  • Faded or patchy colour

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Quernmore?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Quernmore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
