How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Cwmcarnhywel. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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.

Questions from Cwmcarnhywel
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How soon can you come?
