What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Holloway Down without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Holloway Down

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

When to call us in Holloway Down

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

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Holloway Down

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you come to Holloway Down?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Holloway Down for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
