About our coloured bath resurfacing in Leybourne
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Leybourne: your questions answered
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Leybourne?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Common problems we fix in Leybourne
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What affects the price in Leybourne
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Leybourne. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
There’s 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 reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Leybourne, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Leybourne. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
