Coloured bath resurfacing in Wincheap

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Wincheap

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wincheap

For anyone letting property in or around Wincheap, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Wincheap

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white 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 jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Wincheap

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you come to Wincheap?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wincheap for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Common problems we fix in Wincheap

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

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

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

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

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

We price from photos so you do not 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.
