Coloured bath resurfacing in Chartham without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Chartham?

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 get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Chartham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 repair

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • 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, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Chartham: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Chartham. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover Chartham?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Chartham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is my repair covered?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price
