Backwell Green: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you cover the whole of North Somerset?
We cover the entire UK, including Backwell Green and the rest of North Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Backwell Green, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
