About our coloured bath resurfacing in Rowrah

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Rowrah

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

Repair or replace in Rowrah?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

FAQs for Rowrah

Do you cover Rowrah?

We do. We send a technician to Rowrah for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Rowrah

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

Common reasons people in Rowrah contact us include:

  • 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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rowrah. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
