About our coloured bath resurfacing in Wigsley

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Questions from Wigsley

What about the toilet?

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

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you cover Wigsley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Wigsley. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we are called out for in Wigsley

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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 following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Wigsley, 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.
