Coloured bath resurfacing in Speen, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Speen: your questions answered
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Speen?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RG14 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
