Coloured bath resurfacing in Salt End

When a repair is not 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Salt End

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

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: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Salt End

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common questions in Salt End

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Salt End. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
