Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Repair or replace: which is better?

What we do, step by step

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
