How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Sutton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Sutton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Sutton?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SM1 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, 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)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Sutton

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Sutton. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sutton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire suite

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
