Coloured suite to white in Hooley, Greater London
Local coloured bath resurfacing for Hooley: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Hooley, 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. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins 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, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What else we do in Hooley
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hooley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hooley
If you manage property in Hooley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
We will not take on work 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Hooley: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
