Need coloured bath resurfacing in West Ealing?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in West Ealing

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in West Ealing

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for West Ealing. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.
