What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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 often lifts.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Whitwell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
