About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cobhall Common
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cobhall Common
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. 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
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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)
