DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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 we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Tilty
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
There are no surprise 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.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Tilty, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Before booking anyone
- How the colour is matched

FAQs for Tilty
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work in Tilty?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tilty. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work

- Nothing taken out or refitted

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
