Coloured bath resurfacing in Rolleston on Dove, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are 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, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.

Common problems we fix in Rolleston on Dove

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Customers typically contact us about:

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rolleston on Dove. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
