Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- Everything repaired in place
- One visit for most repairs

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Margaret Roding, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we work on in Margaret Roding

Questions from Margaret Roding
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Margaret Roding?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Margaret Roding.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
