Choosing a repair company

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Busby

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Busby. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire suite

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Busby: your questions answered

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Busby?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
