Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Little Ilford homes
Coloured bath resurfacing in Little Ilford without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed quote, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Little Ilford without replacing anything
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Ilford
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white 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 Little Ilford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Little Ilford
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
What affects the price in Little Ilford
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job without visiting.
Common questions in Little Ilford
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Little Ilford?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
