FAQs for Tolleshunt Major

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do you work in Tolleshunt Major?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tolleshunt Major from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Tolleshunt Major

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Tolleshunt Major. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Tolleshunt Major

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Tolleshunt Major

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

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

If you manage property in Tolleshunt Major, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Tolleshunt Major

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
