Besthorpe questions
Do you work in Besthorpe?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Besthorpe. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Besthorpe, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common problems we fix in Besthorpe
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- 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
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Besthorpe. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace in Besthorpe?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Work done at your home or business
