Honest limits

  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Rifle Green, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Rifle Green

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work in Rifle Green?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Rifle Green. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Rifle Green?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rifle Green use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Rifle Green

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
