Coloured bath resurfacing near Tucking Mill

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Tucking Mill

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Tucking Mill: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Are there extra charges for Tucking Mill?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you cover Tucking Mill?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tucking Mill and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we are called out for in Tucking Mill

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

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

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

Repairing versus replacing in Tucking Mill

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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Tucking Mill

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What affects the price in Tucking Mill

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Tucking Mill, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Tucking Mill

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tucking Mill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
