Coloured bath resurfacing in East Malling, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in East Malling and across Kent. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in East Malling

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in East Malling

Do you work in East Malling?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Malling and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in East Malling.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
