How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing in Berkley, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Berkley and across Somerset. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Berkley

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Berkley

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

FAQs for Berkley

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

Across the UK, and that includes Berkley. Prices do not change with location.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Berkley

For anyone letting property in or around Berkley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Berkley

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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 price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
