Coloured bath resurfacing in East Barnet

Coloured bath resurfacing in East Barnet without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare 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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

East Barnet: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are there extra charges for East Barnet?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes East Barnet. Prices do not change with location.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

When to call us in East Barnet

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.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
