How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Stone Cross

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Stone Cross and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repairing versus replacing in Stone Cross

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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 are called out for in Stone Cross

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Stone Cross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Stone Cross

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your BN24 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stone Cross and the rest of East Sussex. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

When can you do it?

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