Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Millison's Wood
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Repairing versus replacing in Millison's Wood
Replacing a coloured suite involves 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Millison's Wood
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Millison's Wood, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CV5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole suite
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
