Coloured bath resurfacing for Whitchurch Canonicorum homes

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Whitchurch Canonicorum

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Whitchurch Canonicorum

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • 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

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Whitchurch Canonicorum. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
