How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Kingston Vale
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Kingston Vale: your questions answered
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Kingston Vale?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SW15 postcode.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work in Kingston Vale?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kingston Vale and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
