What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing in Walcot without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Walcot. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Walcot: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
