Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Wessington, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Advice
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Wessington
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Wessington?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When to call us in Wessington
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
