What affects the price in Lapford
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Lapford?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
