Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Starston

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Starston.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Starston?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you work in Starston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Starston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Starston without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Starston as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace in Starston?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we are called out for in Starston

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.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Starston

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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