Coloured bath resurfacing near Woodside

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Woodside

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Woodside

  • A year’s guarantee on all work

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What affects the price in Woodside

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Woodside. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
