When to call us in Summerstown

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for any of the following:

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Summerstown

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Summerstown. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Summerstown

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
