Coloured bath resurfacing in East Studdal, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
East Studdal: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
