When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Whole bathroom suites

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Great Malvern

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Choosing a repair company

Great Malvern questions

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Get a quote

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Great Malvern, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
