Coloured bath resurfacing in Wickham Green

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Wickham Green

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Wickham Green

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Wickham Green?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Wickham Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Wickham Green

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Wickham Green. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wickham Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Common problems we fix in Wickham Green

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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
