Coloured bath resurfacing near Theale

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby 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. 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing in Theale without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

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

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Theale

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Theale as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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 will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Questions from Theale

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Theale?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
