How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Wigginton

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

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.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Wigginton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Wigginton clients choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
