When to call us in Vigo

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

Coloured bath resurfacing in Vigo without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Vigo as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Vigo

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Vigo: your questions answered

What about the toilet?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Vigo?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Vigo and the rest of Walsall. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Vigo?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WS9 postcode.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Vigo

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Vigo

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Vigo. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
