Need coloured bath resurfacing in North Green?

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Coloured bath resurfacing in North Green without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for North Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in North Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in North Green

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

Questions from North Green

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in North Green.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  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. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
