Coloured bath resurfacing for Stronmilchan homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Stronmilchan

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Stronmilchan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Stronmilchan

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Stronmilchan. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stronmilchan, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Stronmilchan: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you cover the entire of Argyll and Bute?

All of Argyll and Bute, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Stronmilchan?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
