How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Costhorpe
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Costhorpe
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Costhorpe
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
