Repairing versus replacing in Botolphs
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Botolphs
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Landlord and trade work in Botolphs
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Botolphs. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different 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)

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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 normally cheaper.
Common questions in Botolphs
Do you cover Botolphs?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Botolphs for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
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.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
