Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Islington
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Islington questions
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work in Islington?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Islington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Islington. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Islington, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why Islington clients choose us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A fixed quote before you book
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
