Coloured bath resurfacing near Sandhills

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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 day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Sandhills

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Sandhills: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Are there extra charges for Sandhills?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we work on in Sandhills

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sandhills. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Sandhills get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common problems we fix in Sandhills

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
