Coloured bath resurfacing near Trub

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Trub, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Trub

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Trub. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Trub

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • 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

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Honest limits

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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trub

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Trub: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

When can you do it?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How do I book?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will it make a mess?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
