How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Temple Dinsley

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Temple Dinsley

Replacing a coloured suite 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Temple Dinsley clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Temple Dinsley. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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)

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

What we work on

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

FAQs for Temple Dinsley

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Temple Dinsley and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
