Coloured bath resurfacing for Hadley Wood homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hadley Wood without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We’re frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Hadley Wood

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

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

10 questions to ask before booking

FAQs for Hadley Wood

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Hadley Wood?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
