Coloured bath resurfacing near Wellow

Coloured bath resurfacing in Wellow, done in place

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Wellow

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Wellow

For anyone letting property in or around Wellow, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Common problems we fix in Wellow

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Wellow: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Wellow and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Wellow?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
