Coloured bath resurfacing in Barnes Cray

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Barnes Cray

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Barnes Cray and across Kent. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Barnes Cray

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Barnes Cray. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How quickly can you book me in?

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Barnes Cray?

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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 usually cheaper.

Honest limits

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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Barnes Cray

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

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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 a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
