About our coloured bath resurfacing in Winterborne Stickland

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 normally the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winterborne Stickland use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Winterborne Stickland. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Winterborne Stickland customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Common questions in Winterborne Stickland

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dorset.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for Winterborne Stickland?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Winterborne Stickland

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

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

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
