DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Wykin without replacing anything
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wykin
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it 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 we start. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
FAQs for Wykin
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Repairing versus replacing in Wykin
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
