Coloured suite to white in Ivy Hatch, Kent
We travel to Ivy Hatch for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Ivy Hatch
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. 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 each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Ivy Hatch customers choose us
- Colour mixed on the day to match

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
FAQs for Ivy Hatch
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. 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.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
