Coloured bath resurfacing for Twyford homes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Twyford

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Twyford and across Shropshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Twyford

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.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Comparing quotes

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What affects the price in Twyford

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Twyford questions

Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?

We work UK-wide, so Twyford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens next?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
