Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chatham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chatham
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Chatham
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Chatham?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you cover the whole of Medway?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Chatham. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chatham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
