Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Great Clifton
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Great Clifton?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your CA14 postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Great Clifton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Clifton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will give you a straight answer.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Clifton
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
