Coloured Bath Resurfacing across Kent

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Kent

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally 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, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

What it costs in Kent

Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Local landmarks in Maidstone

Typical jobs here are in homes near Paper Makers Arms, Maidstone Grammar School and St Philip's Church, among other places. You’ll also find River Len LNR (within half a mile north-east), South Borough Primary School (under half a mile south) and St Augustine Academy (1.2 miles west). Maidstone’s nearest station is Maidstone West station, roughly 0.6 miles north-west of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around Maidstone Carriage Museum (under half a mile north-west) and Oakwood Hospital (1.8 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Burham Down and Boxley Hills.

Landlord and trade work in Kent

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Kent. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place.

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Kent: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Kent.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
