How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Seaham, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
There’s 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
FAQs for Seaham
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Seaham included. Travel is included in the price.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Repairing versus replacing in Seaham
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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.
