DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not 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.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Trentham

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Trentham

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Trentham: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you cover Trentham?

We do. Technicians travel to Trentham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trentham

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

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.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ST4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
