- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Barrowby. The price reflects:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures so you do not 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Barrowby
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days.

What else we do in Barrowby
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
