Book coloured bath resurfacing in St Giles

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in St Giles

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from St Giles

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

Across the UK, and that includes St Giles. Prices do not change with location.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

  • Typically one visit, start to finish

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)

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

Materials we work on in St Giles

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

If you’re in St Giles and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Common problems we fix in St Giles

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

Look out for these signs:

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