Coloured bath resurfacing in Three Legged Cross, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Three Legged Cross

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Three Legged Cross

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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.
