Coloured bath resurfacing near Thorpe on the Hill

Coloured bath resurfacing in Thorpe on the Hill without replacing anything

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Take a look at our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Thorpe on the Hill

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Are there extra charges for Thorpe on the Hill?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Thorpe on the Hill. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally 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. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
