About our coloured bath resurfacing in Swanland

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Swanland

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole suite

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

  • 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 does not match a new bathroom

FAQs for Swanland

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Swanland

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swanland as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
