How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Well End

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on 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 a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Well End and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Well End

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Well End, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Well End as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Well End

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Well End?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and 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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Well End

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Well End clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When a repair is not 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)

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