About our coloured bath resurfacing in Chestfield
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on 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.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Chestfield
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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)

What affects the price in Chestfield
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Chestfield. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chestfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CT5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chestfield
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Chestfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
