About our coloured bath resurfacing in North Cray

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to North Cray. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace in North Cray?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Questions from North Cray

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What information do you need?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Cray

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

For anyone letting property in or around North Cray, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Most customers in North Cray get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
