Coloured bath resurfacing near Six Mile Bottom

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Six Mile Bottom

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Six Mile Bottom use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Repairing versus replacing in Six Mile Bottom

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Six Mile Bottom questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is my repair covered?

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

When can you do it?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Six Mile Bottom?

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

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When to call us in Six Mile Bottom

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
