How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Farndon
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Farndon
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
FAQs for Farndon
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are there extra charges for Farndon?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Farndon?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Farndon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.

How it works

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
