Coloured bath resurfacing in Ridgeway Cross

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Ridgeway Cross

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Ridgeway Cross without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ridgeway Cross and across Herefordshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take 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. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Ridgeway Cross get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
