How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Sandford

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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, generally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

FAQs for Sandford

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
