How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Reddish Vale

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Reddish Vale and across Greater Manchester. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Reddish Vale

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Reddish Vale

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Reddish Vale. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SK5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Reddish Vale

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover Reddish Vale?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Reddish Vale from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Reddish Vale use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
