Coloured bath resurfacing in Stour Row

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Stour Row

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Stour Row questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens next?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you cover Stour Row?

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

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing or bath cost comparison.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SP7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
