Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Spalford

Coloured bath resurfacing in Spalford without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Spalford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Spalford and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Spalford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Spalford

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for any of the following:

  • 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

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Spalford: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you cover Spalford?

We do. Technicians travel to Spalford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
