If you manage property in Stanley Gate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Stanley Gate without replacing anything

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

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stanley Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Stanley Gate

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Stanley Gate. Prices do not change with location.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Stanley Gate

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
