Coloured bath resurfacing near Whitchurch

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Whitchurch

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we are called out for in Whitchurch

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

Common questions in Whitchurch

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Whitchurch?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
