Coloured bath resurfacing near Rachub

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Rachub

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you come to Rachub?

We do. We send a technician to Rachub for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Rachub

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we’re called out for in Rachub

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Rachub, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the entire UK
