Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Frenchay and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Frenchay
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Frenchay
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you work in Frenchay?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Frenchay from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Frenchay clients choose us

- No need to remove anything
