When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Britford
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Britford
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Britford
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
