DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Calais Street

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Calais Street

Do you come to Calais Street?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Calais Street and the rest of Suffolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Calais Street?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

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 a coloured bath be made white?

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Calais Street

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Calais Street as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repair or replace in Calais Street?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
