Coloured bath resurfacing near Winklebury

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Winklebury

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Winklebury. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire suite

We price from pictures 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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Winklebury

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Winklebury, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your RG23 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Winklebury

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
