What affects the price in Marston on Dove
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole suite
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Marston on Dove. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
