What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Emmer Green. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Emmer Green, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
