DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Grimsbury

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

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Grimsbury as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we are called out for in Grimsbury

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

Selling or letting a home with an old suite
A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Faded or patchy colour
A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grimsbury use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Where the damage is and how we get to it
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A close-up of the damage, in focus
Natural light rather than flash
A wider photo showing the whole suite

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Grimsbury?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

We protect the room and ventilate it.
We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
