Coloured bath resurfacing in Kew

Coloured bath resurfacing in Kew, done in place

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 faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Kew

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Kew. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Kew. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Kew. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kew as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace in Kew?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.
