How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Gubblecote. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Gubblecote: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
