Coloured bath resurfacing near Stanley

Stanley: your questions answered

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Are you accredited?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Stanley?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WV16 postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Stanley, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Stanley?

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 these signs:

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

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Stanley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Stanley clients choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 typically the cheaper route.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stanley, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
