Coloured bath resurfacing near Kingston near Lewes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Kingston near Lewes

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Somewhere as small as Kingston near Lewes, you will find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Some have heavy cast iron baths or tight bathrooms, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Coloured bath resurfacing in place avoids all of that.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, 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.

When to call us in Kingston near Lewes

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • 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

FAQs for Kingston near Lewes

Can you fix coloured suites in a rental near Lewes station?

Yes. We fix coloured suites between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and several addresses can be quoted together.

Can you restore the original coloured suites in an older house in Kingston near Lewes?

Normally: original pieces are often better made and harder to replace. Send pictures and we’ll advise.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

What areas do you cover?

All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. Somewhere as small as Kingston near Lewes, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the coloured bath resurfacing works exactly as anywhere else.

  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. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes cost nothing and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
