Coloured bath resurfacing in Norbury

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Norbury

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norbury

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page or bath cost comparison.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Norbury and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
