Landlords, agents and businesses in The Holt

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

About our coloured bath resurfacing in The Holt

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

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: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in The Holt

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The Holt questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What do you need from me?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to The Holt. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in The Holt?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
