Landlord and trade work in Dulwich Village

If you manage property in Dulwich Village, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Dulwich Village

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

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

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 will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Dulwich Village?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Dulwich Village questions

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Dulwich Village

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. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our full price list and bath cost comparison.

The process

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. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Dulwich Village. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Dulwich Village get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
