DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)

Common questions in Stillington
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Stillington?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Are there extra charges for Stillington?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
