Coloured bath resurfacing in Totley, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Totley questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you come to Totley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Totley. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Totley. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Totley

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Totley?

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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