How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Totternhoe

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Totternhoe: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Totternhoe?

We do. We send a technician to Totternhoe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LU6 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you cover the entire of Central Bedfordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Totternhoe included. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Totternhoe?

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

Clients usually contact us about:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
