Coloured bath resurfacing near Roborough

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Roborough

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Roborough: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Roborough.

Do you cover Roborough?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Roborough and the rest of Devon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What happens next?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Roborough

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace in Roborough?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Roborough?

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

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

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
