Coloured bath resurfacing near High Halden

About our coloured bath resurfacing in High Halden

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for High Halden. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Halden

If you manage property in High Halden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in High Halden

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

  • 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

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in High Halden
