Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Willows Green

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

For a price in Willows Green, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Willows Green

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Willows Green?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When to call us in Willows Green

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  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. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
