What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Laddingford. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole suite
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Repair or replace in Laddingford?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Laddingford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Laddingford: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
