What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Sandbach

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Sandbach. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CW11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Sandbach questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the entire of Cheshire East?

Everywhere in the UK, Sandbach included. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Sandbach

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Customers typically contact us about:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
