Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Walberton

Landlord and trade work in Walberton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Walberton

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Walberton

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Walberton

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.

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

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Walberton

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Walberton. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Walberton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
