Coloured bath resurfacing in Winterborne St Martin

Landlords, agents and businesses in Winterborne St Martin

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Winterborne St Martin without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Winterborne St Martin

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Winterborne St Martin?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Are there extra charges for Winterborne St Martin?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Winterborne St Martin. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s 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 price.
