Coloured bath resurfacing in Iwade, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

FAQs for Iwade

Do you cover Iwade?

We do. Technicians travel to Iwade from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Iwade. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Iwade. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Iwade, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Iwade

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

Before you book anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Landlord and trade work in Iwade

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 also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
