About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hinchley Wood

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 you book.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Hinchley Wood

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Hinchley Wood. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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.

Landlord and trade work in Hinchley Wood

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Hinchley Wood, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
