Coloured bath resurfacing near Slindon

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Slindon

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace: which is better?

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

10 questions to ask before booking

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Common questions in Slindon

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
