About our coloured bath resurfacing in Whaddon

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Whaddon

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Whaddon.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Whaddon

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whaddon use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

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.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
