Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Wombwell

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wombwell as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Wombwell: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Wombwell?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work in Wombwell?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What affects the price in Wombwell

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your S73 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

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

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
