Coloured bath resurfacing in Three Maypoles, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we’re called out for in Three Maypoles

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Three Maypoles

FAQs for Three Maypoles

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Three Maypoles?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Three Maypoles. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
