About our coloured bath resurfacing in Kettle Corner
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we are called out for in Kettle Corner
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Look out for these signs:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Repairing versus replacing in Kettle Corner
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kettle Corner
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kettle Corner use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Kettle Corner
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the whole of Kent?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Kettle Corner. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kettle Corner. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
