Tongue: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Tongue
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tongue as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.

The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

Advice
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Tongue
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tongue
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Tongue?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
