Coloured bath resurfacing in Little Chelsea, done in place

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. We are frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Little Chelsea as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t 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)

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

Materials we work on in Little Chelsea

Questions from Little Chelsea

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Little Chelsea. Prices don’t change with location.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Little Chelsea

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means 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. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
