Coloured bath resurfacing in Stinsford, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Stinsford

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

Stinsford: your questions answered

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

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you work in Stinsford?

We do. We send a technician to Stinsford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Which areas do you work in?

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Stinsford. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job without visiting.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key 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 following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
