Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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.

What affects the price in Worth

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Worth

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Choosing a repair company

Worth: your questions answered

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Worth?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you hold any accreditations?
