DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Coloured bath resurfacing in New Basford without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

New Basford: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
