Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Didsbury
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Didsbury
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Didsbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Didsbury clients choose us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your photos
Read our prices page or bath cost comparison.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.
