Coloured bath resurfacing in Trumpethill without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

FAQs for Trumpethill

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is my repair covered?

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

Do you work in Trumpethill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Trumpethill and the rest of Inverclyde. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Trumpethill.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

How soon can you come?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Trumpethill?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Trumpethill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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.

What we work on

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