About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hele
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
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.

Questions from Hele
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
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.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A fixed quote before booking

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
