Coloured bath resurfacing near Roosebeck

What happens on the day

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 a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Roosebeck

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Roosebeck as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Roosebeck

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. 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?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

When to call us in Roosebeck

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.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • 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

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Roosebeck. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

Landlord and trade work in Roosebeck

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.

For anyone letting property in or around Roosebeck, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What we cannot put right

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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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