Coloured bath resurfacing in Torksey

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Torksey

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Torksey without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Torksey: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What information do you need?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Torksey

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • 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
  • Faded or patchy colour

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Torksey

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Torksey as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
