Coloured bath resurfacing in Stocksbridge

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Stocksbridge. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Stocksbridge

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stocksbridge

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How the visit works

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

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Stocksbridge

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Stocksbridge

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you come to Stocksbridge?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stocksbridge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Repairing versus replacing in Stocksbridge

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stocksbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • One price list for the whole UK

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common problems we fix in Stocksbridge

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • How to look after the finish
