Choosing a repair company

Coloured bath resurfacing in Horham without replacing anything

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Horham

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you come to Horham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Horham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Horham.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Horham. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Horham

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
