Coloured bath resurfacing in Turnford

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Turnford, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Turnford, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s 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 avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Turnford?

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

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

  • 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

How to compare quotes

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Turnford. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Turnford, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Turnford

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.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
