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.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hornick
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Hornick questions
Do you work in Hornick?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hornick and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite. We leave the room clean.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why Hornick customers choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
