Coloured bath resurfacing in Wilde Street, done in place

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

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Wilde Street get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Wilde Street: your questions answered

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you work in Wilde Street?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Wilde Street?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wilde Street

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
