Coloured bath resurfacing near Staple Hill

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Staple Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour-matched on site

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Staple Hill. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Staple Hill, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common questions in Staple Hill

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

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Staple Hill.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When to call us in Staple Hill

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
