Coloured bath resurfacing in Seething

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Seething

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. We leave the room clean.

  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. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Seething

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Seething?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repair or replace in Seething?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Seething?

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

  • 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
  • Faded or patchy colour

Our hiring checklist

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Seething. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Seething. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Seething as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
