Coloured bath resurfacing in Fromes Hill without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fromes Hill as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Fromes Hill
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we’re called out for in Fromes Hill

- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, 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.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
What affects the price in Fromes Hill
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, 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.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
