How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Slimbridge

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Slimbridge and across Gloucestershire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Slimbridge questions

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can landlords book you?

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

Do you come to Slimbridge?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Slimbridge and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Slimbridge?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Slimbridge?

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

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

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Slimbridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Slimbridge

  • No extra charge for your area

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
