Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Peacehaven

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Peacehaven

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Peacehaven. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

When to call us in Peacehaven

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

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

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

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

FAQs for Peacehaven

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are there extra charges for Peacehaven?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Peacehaven. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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 is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Peacehaven, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
