DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in East Bergholt
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairing versus replacing in East Bergholt
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
