Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Childs Hill homes
We travel to Childs Hill for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Childs Hill, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you have a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.
London bathrooms are often small, tiled tight around the bath and up a flight or two of stairs. Replacing the bath disturbs all of that, while coloured bath resurfacing leaves it in place.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Childs Hill
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. In a London home like many in Childs Hill, replacing a suite also means getting the old one out and the new one in, frequently up stairs, plus parking for the fitters and room for any waste. A repair sidesteps it.
Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Childs Hill
Can parking be a problem in Childs Hill?
With a bit of notice, it’s rarely a problem: tell us about controlled parking zones, bays or a driveway.
Can you fix coloured suites in a rental near Cricklewood station?
Yes, we often work between tenancies, and we can quote for several properties together.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare. Many jobs in Childs Hill are in flats, so we come prepared for stairs and narrow hallways. We bring compact kit, and the room is protected before work begins.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
