Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Tockington

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Tockington

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Repair or replace in Tockington?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Tockington

For anyone letting property in or around Tockington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Tockington

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire suite

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we work on in Tockington

Common questions in Tockington

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you quote from photos?

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