About our coloured bath resurfacing in Tolleshunt D'Arcy

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole suite

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

If you’re in Tolleshunt D'Arcy and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
