Coloured bath resurfacing in Springholm

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Springholm

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Springholm as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What we are called out for in Springholm

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Springholm questions

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Springholm. Prices do not change with location.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Springholm, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What affects the price in Springholm

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Springholm and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
