Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Baker's Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Baker's Cross

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Baker's Cross

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Baker's Cross clients choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Baker's Cross

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

What affects the price in Baker's Cross

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TN17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
