  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Thuxton

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Thuxton

Can landlords book you?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

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

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

Do you cover Thuxton?

We do. We send a technician to Thuxton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Thuxton. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Thuxton

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Thuxton?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place
