Coloured bath resurfacing near Lessingham

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Lessingham

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 selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Lessingham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lessingham

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Lessingham?

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

Look out for any of the following:

  • 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

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Lessingham

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NR12 postcode.
