Coloured bath resurfacing near Swinithwaite

Common questions in Swinithwaite

Will it make a mess?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Swinithwaite, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Swinithwaite

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should you replace it?

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What affects the price in Swinithwaite

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair generally 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

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Swinithwaite get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we’re called out for in Swinithwaite

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.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
