Landlord and trade work in Barrington
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Barrington without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Barrington
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Barrington?
We do. We send a technician to Barrington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barrington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A year’s guarantee on all work
Take a look at our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What affects the price in Barrington
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of 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.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
