DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Ardley
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX27 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
