Coloured bath resurfacing in Upper Largo without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Upper Largo: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Are there extra charges for Upper Largo?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
