Coloured bath resurfacing for Ticehurst homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ticehurst

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ticehurst use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we are called out for in Ticehurst

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Ticehurst. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Ticehurst

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TN5 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Ticehurst?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Ticehurst

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price
