Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
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 will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pye Bridge
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pye Bridge use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Pye Bridge
- No extra charge for your area
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Pye Bridge
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Pye Bridge questions
Are there extra charges for Pye Bridge?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you cover Pye Bridge?
We do. We send a technician to Pye Bridge for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How quickly can you book me in?
