When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Stevenage without replacing anything

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we’re called out for in Stevenage

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

Customers typically contact us about:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to look after the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repairing versus replacing in Stevenage

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Stevenage. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SG1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
