Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Clapton in Gordano

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Clapton in Gordano

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Clapton in Gordano: your questions answered

My house in Clapton in Gordano is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Normally: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send photos and we’ll advise.

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

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
