For landlords and businesses

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Houghton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
