For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Repairing versus replacing in Higher Bockhampton
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Other services in Higher Bockhampton
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Higher Bockhampton: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What affects the price in Higher Bockhampton
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Higher Bockhampton. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
