Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Hastings Hill homes

- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hastings Hill
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price

What affects the price in Hastings Hill
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Hastings Hill and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we are called out for in Hastings Hill
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Can I fix it myself?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Questions from Hastings Hill
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
