Coloured bath resurfacing in West Ashton

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in West Ashton

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Ashton as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in West Ashton

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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 following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in West Ashton

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in West Ashton

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

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.
