Coloured bath resurfacing for Salters Lode homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Salters Lode, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Salters Lode use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Salters Lode

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

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 price, not an estimate.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Salters Lode

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day

Salters Lode questions

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

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.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover Salters Lode?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Salters Lode for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Repair or replace in Salters Lode?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
