Common questions in Castle Cary
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Castle Cary?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Castle Cary from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Castle Cary
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Castle Cary use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
