DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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.
Materials we work on in Black Torrington
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Black Torrington. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
