Coloured bath resurfacing in Ulcombe, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Questions from Ulcombe

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you come to Ulcombe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ulcombe and the rest of Kent. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Ulcombe is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ulcombe?

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.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • 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

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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 day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ulcombe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ulcombe

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 cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
