Coloured bath resurfacing in Woolhampton without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Woolhampton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for these signs:

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

Choosing a repair company

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Woolhampton

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

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

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Woolhampton?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RG7 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
