Questions from Todhills
Do you cover Todhills?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Todhills. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Todhills?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DL14 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
If you manage property in Todhills, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
