About our coloured bath resurfacing in Garlinge
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Garlinge and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Garlinge
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we are called out for in Garlinge
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Repair or replace in Garlinge?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Garlinge
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Garlinge. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Garlinge, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
