Book coloured bath resurfacing in Wilstone

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Wilstone

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging 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.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Wilstone

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Wilstone

Are there extra charges for Wilstone?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Wilstone.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HP23 postcode.

Do you cover Wilstone?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 quote.
