Coloured bath resurfacing in Strabane

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Strabane, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Strabane and the surrounding area. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Strabane

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not 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.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it

Common problems we fix in Strabane

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Customers normally contact us about:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Strabane

For anyone letting property in or around Strabane, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Strabane as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Strabane

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Strabane.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
