Questions from Hewish

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hewish without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Hewish

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

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