Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in St Olaves

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire suite

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common problems we fix in St Olaves

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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