Coloured bath resurfacing for Woolwich homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Woolwich

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Woolwich. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole suite

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Woolwich, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Woolwich

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to Woolwich?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Woolwich from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Woolwich. Prices do not change with location.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

When to call us in Woolwich

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

Clients normally contact us about:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Woolwich

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
