About our coloured bath resurfacing in Inner Hope

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Inner Hope and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Inner Hope

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inner Hope use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Inner Hope, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

What affects the price in Inner Hope

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Inner Hope, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Inner Hope

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is the work guaranteed?

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
