What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bunwell Bottom

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Should you replace it?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
