Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Stainsacre

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stainsacre. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Stainsacre, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Stainsacre

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Stainsacre included. Travel is included in the price.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy 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 we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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.
