Need coloured bath resurfacing in Salwick?

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Salwick

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Salwick

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Salwick

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlords, agents and businesses in Salwick

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Salwick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Salwick. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Questions from Salwick

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

Across the UK, so Salwick is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can landlords book you?

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

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
