Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for North Watford. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for North Watford
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in North Watford?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When to call us in North Watford
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
