DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Caldy without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Caldy as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Caldy questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Caldy.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Caldy?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Caldy and the rest of Wirral. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

What we’re called out for in Caldy

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
