Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Lower Kilburn
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Kilburn
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Lower Kilburn and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Kilburn
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
