Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Tansor

Coloured bath resurfacing in Tansor without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Tansor

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Tansor included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Tansor?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Tansor customers choose us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tansor

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
