Coloured bath resurfacing in Hogben's Hill

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hogben's Hill

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Hogben's Hill

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Hogben's Hill questions

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Hogben's Hill and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
