Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heath End 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 are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Heath End
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Heath End
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are there extra charges for Heath End?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?
Across the UK, so Heath End is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Heath End
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.
