What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Tullos without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when 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.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
