Coloured bath resurfacing in Saltdean without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for Saltdean

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you work in Saltdean?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

All of Brighton and Hove, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

When a repair is not the answer

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 you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t 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.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Saltdean get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
