Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

FAQs for Little Whelnetham
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
