FAQs for Mill Meads
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Greater London.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Mill Meads, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
Most customers in Mill Meads get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Mill Meads
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repairing versus replacing in Mill Meads
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
