DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Coldwaltham
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
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.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
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.

- 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)

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
