Coloured bath resurfacing for Howt Green homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Howt Green

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Howt Green and across Kent. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Howt Green. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

If you manage property in Howt Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour

FAQs for Howt Green

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Howt Green?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Howt Green?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
