  • Faded or patchy colour

10 questions to ask before you book

Coloured bath resurfacing in Wheatley, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Wheatley and across Doncaster. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire suite

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Wheatley

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Wheatley. Prices do not change with location.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
