About our coloured bath resurfacing in Westenhanger

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Westenhanger. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CT21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in Westenhanger

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

Common questions in Westenhanger

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you do the toilet too?

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

For a price in Westenhanger, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Westenhanger

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Westenhanger, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westenhanger as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
