Coloured bath resurfacing near Silverdale

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Silverdale

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are 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: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Silverdale

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

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Silverdale get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Silverdale

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • 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

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Silverdale. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Silverdale

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you come to Silverdale?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Silverdale from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

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

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a repair cannot fix

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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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