DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

FAQs for Swillington Common
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Do you work in Swillington Common?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Swillington Common. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Swillington Common.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- 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, generally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
