What affects the price in Swettenham Heath
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Swettenham Heath without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can

Swettenham Heath: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
