Coloured bath resurfacing in Redcliffe

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Redcliffe

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Redcliffe, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Redcliffe

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How soon can you come?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BS1 postcode.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Redcliffe

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

Look out for any of the following:

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Redcliffe

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
