- Faded or patchy colour

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Barnstaple. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Barnstaple get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Barnstaple
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Barnstaple included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Landlord and trade work in Barnstaple

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
