Benslow: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Benslow?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Benslow, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Benslow and across Hertfordshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Benslow, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Benslow
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Benslow
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.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Repairing versus replacing in Benslow
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
