About our coloured bath resurfacing in Surbiton

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Surbiton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Surbiton, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair can’t fix

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Surbiton

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Surbiton questions

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

We cover the whole UK, including Surbiton and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
