Coloured bath resurfacing near Tong

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Tong

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you’re in Tong and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Tong

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Tong

Do you cover Tong?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Tong and the rest of Shropshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Tong.

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.

What do you need from me?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
