Coloured bath resurfacing in Widham

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Widham

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Widham

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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 day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Widham

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Widham. Prices do not change with location.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you come to Widham?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Widham and the rest of Swindon. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
