Coloured bath resurfacing near Canary Wharf

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Canary Wharf

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

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

Common questions in Canary Wharf

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Common problems we fix in Canary Wharf

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Canary Wharf

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Canary Wharf. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Canary Wharf clients choose us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What a repair can’t fix

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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
