Need coloured bath resurfacing in Sector?

Sector: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Sector?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX13 postcode.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Sector, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Sector, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Sector

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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