Coloured bath resurfacing near Woodhouse

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Woodhouse

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Woodhouse

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Woodhouse?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?

We work UK-wide, so Woodhouse is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you cover Woodhouse?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d 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 photos 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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When to call us in Woodhouse

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Woodhouse get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
