Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Telford

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When to call us in Telford

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare 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 following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TF2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Telford

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Telford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Telford questions

Are there extra charges for Telford?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Repair or replace in Telford?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Telford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
