DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Exminster
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Exminster as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Exminster. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Exminster, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Questions from Exminster
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Exminster. Our prices are the same everywhere.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When to call us in Exminster
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
