Coloured bath resurfacing in Skirlaugh

Landlords, agents and businesses in Skirlaugh

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Skirlaugh

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Skirlaugh

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

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Skirlaugh?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Skirlaugh for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

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

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Skirlaugh

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
