Need coloured bath resurfacing in Widcombe?

Widcombe: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work in Widcombe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Widcombe and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Widcombe, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t 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.

What we are called out for in Widcombe

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Widcombe, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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 frequently lifts.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Widcombe

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Widcombe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
