Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in New Zealand

Coloured bath resurfacing in New Zealand, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Zealand

If you manage property in New Zealand, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

New Zealand: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in New Zealand?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Repairing versus replacing in New Zealand

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK

Common problems we fix in New Zealand

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Look out for any of the following:

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

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including New Zealand. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.
