About our coloured bath resurfacing in Tooting

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What affects the price in Tooting

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Tooting, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What we cannot put right

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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
