Coloured bath resurfacing in Mile End without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Mile End
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Mile End questions
Are there extra charges for Mile End?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Mile End and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
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.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

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 without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CO4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
