How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Tinker Hey

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Tinker Hey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Tinker Hey

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tinker Hey use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
