Repair or replace in Black Horse Drove?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Black Horse Drove
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work in Black Horse Drove?
We do. We send a technician to Black Horse Drove for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Black Horse Drove
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
