Coloured bath resurfacing near Seend

Coloured bath resurfacing in Seend, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Seend

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Our hiring checklist

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Seend

Will you leave a mess?

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

When can you do it?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What a repair can’t fix

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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Seend

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Seend. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Seend

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
