Coloured bath resurfacing near Wellington

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Wellington, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wellington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key 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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When to call us in Wellington

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
