Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Hoo

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hoo

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We are often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Hoo

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Hoo?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP13 postcode.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step

On the day, 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 clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
