Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t 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 trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
