Coloured bath resurfacing in Bow without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Bow

Is it messy?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Bow. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
