How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Holmrook
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What affects the price in Holmrook
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Holmrook, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Holmrook

DIY kit or professional repair?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
