About our coloured bath resurfacing in Battlesea Green

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Battlesea Green

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Battlesea Green

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Questions from Battlesea Green

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
