Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we are called out for in Cotherstone
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
What affects the price in Cotherstone
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Cotherstone, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Cotherstone?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
