Coloured bath resurfacing in Battersea, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Battersea

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you quote from photos?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Battersea included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you come to Battersea?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Battersea and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Battersea?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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 changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Battersea?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

Choosing a repair company

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The material

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

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

Surfaces we repair

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