Coloured bath resurfacing in East Hanningfield, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in East Hanningfield
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you come to East Hanningfield?
We do. We send a technician to East Hanningfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
