Coloured bath resurfacing in West Wickham without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
West Wickham questions
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover West Wickham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to West Wickham and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What affects the price in West Wickham
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 will say what we think.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
What we’re called out for in West Wickham
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price 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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
