Coloured bath resurfacing in Hindhead, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Hindhead: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Hindhead?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A suite that does not 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

Repairing versus replacing in Hindhead

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
