For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Energlyn as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Energlyn without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Energlyn
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Energlyn?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Energlyn, pictures 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.
