DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Horton Heath

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
