Coloured bath resurfacing for Renhold homes

Repairing versus replacing in Renhold

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Renhold

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Renhold

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your MK41 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Renhold

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Renhold questions

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What do you need from me?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What we are called out for in Renhold

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
