Coloured bath resurfacing near Windmill Hill

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Windmill Hill

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before you book

Windmill Hill: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Windmill Hill?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

The entire UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Windmill Hill?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens after I send pictures?

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What we are called out for in Windmill Hill

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A suite that doesn’t 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
