Coloured bath resurfacing in Townsend

When we’d 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 will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Townsend

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

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Townsend

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Townsend as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Townsend

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Townsend. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise 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.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

If you are in Townsend and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Townsend

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you come to Townsend?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Townsend from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather 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.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
