What affects the price in Cantley
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cantley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Cantley, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Cantley
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What to look for in a quote

- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Cantley
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
