Coloured bath resurfacing for Whitley Head homes

Whitley Head: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

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

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Whitley Head without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

For landlords and businesses

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

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.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

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

Repairing versus replacing in Whitley Head

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Common problems we fix in Whitley Head

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
