Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in West Leake

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in West Leake?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Our hiring checklist

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in West Leake

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in West Leake

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Leake use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to West Leake. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, 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 we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

West Leake: your questions answered

Do you work in West Leake?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Leake. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the entire UK

See our pricing or bath cost comparison.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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